in Ovarian Cancer #1

Tuesday, early at the crack of dawn, I will be at the hospital having my double mastectomy with DIEP reconstruction. Also, my plastic surgeon is going to repair 2 hernias from my ovarian cancer debulking surgery. I will be at the hospital 3 to 5 days depending on blood flow to the transfered tissue. Prayers appreciated!

    Prayers for sure....  I remember you posting earlier it was going to be a long surgery...  Best of luck.  Can't wait to hear your rundown of it.  It is in the back of my mind to do this...

    In my thoughts today~

    You are doing the right thing. My doctor advised me to do the "easy" implants but caner came back before I got the espanders out so i had to wear them for a year. This way you will have a tough week but then you will be done and beautiful! Have a speedy recovery!
