I really don't think there is a right or wrong answer to this. Just like there are many kinds of breast cancers, there are many different treatments. We just have to go with how we feel about this from the depths of our soul. I know I would have felt like a freak if I did not get the surgery done when I did. I remember the way my mom looked when she had a radical mastectomy where they also take the muscle underneath the breast. I could count all her ribs. She even had her ovaries removed, but no chemo. She died 13 years later with mets to her spine from the either breast cancer or colon cancer. Blessings. Lu Ann.
