feel like half a woman

I so agree...
I had one breast removed in 1986 and the other in 1988...no recon.
As of July 3, I am officially a 25 year survivor.
And I would not have missed the life I am living now for ANYTHING.
I am 63, with a man who loves me in spite of my 'breastless' condition (not the man I was married to at the time), and living every day as I choose (for the most part of course).
The perspective I have now has been dearly won and not an easy win either, but from where I stand now I can see that the past is what it is and it is up to me to do what I can with today and all my future days. Choices. I choose to LIVE.

PS...The man who loves me just asked me to tell you all that there is so much more to a woman than her breasts and he wishes you all well.

I pray that you will start
I pray that you will start feeling better about yourself. There is so much more to us, than just our physical appearance. You have fought bc and you are a winner, a survivor!
