I just wanted to write about my experience. I am 37 years old, and 10 months ago had a mastectomy with TRAMM flap reconstruction. First was chemo, then the surgery, then radiation. I was out of work about a year. Anyway, my point is, I feel back to my normal self. My hair is growing back so curly, my color is back to normal (not that greenish color I was for a while) and I feel like my bionic parts have become part of me. I am working and living as I had, of course taking precautions to ensure I'm healthy, and so far so good. I just felt like writing something encouraging, cause sometimes it gets hard when you're right in the middle of it. But there's a light at the end of the tunnel, Ladies, and it's us.
