That’s great Missy. Is it a public journal? If it is, please provide the link. Would love to link to it off my blog.

Thanks for tracking your journey in such detail. I just finished sharing my breast reconstruction photo journal on Shutterfly’s Gallery. I hope it will be of help to someone.

Love the blog…here’s the deal, check out (www.ThePatientsAdvantage.com); seriously. I ran into them looking for breast reduction surgeons. They have a great way to find the best surgeons and it is completely free. I have used them a couple times now.

Thank you so much for highlighting the many options available to women. Many women are not aware of these options and it is important that they know they do indeed have a choice. Often in the shock of diagnosis, very little thought is given to reconstruction, as you point out, but every woman has a right to be informed about choices that improve the cosmetic appearance of the breast and be able to consider all options before embarking on major surgery that will impact their overall quality of life. So many of our options are taken away from us when we receive a diagnosis of cancer, it is good to know we have some power over the choice of reconstruction
