Hi again brenda. And yes I am extremely happy. I think you'll be ok. Having a pcr is a very positive thing. Also you made the wise choice to remove both breasts.Look into some things you can do to reduce your chance of recurrence, reducing body fat, exercise, and healthy eating.
Also, I swear by flaxseed and evoo.
Before you know it.. You'll be way on the other side and bc will be a memory, and you'll be dancing too!
