FINALLY, RECONSTRUTION BREAST SURGERY AFTER CANCER. We have kids, busy husband.

Roca, NE

W
Story

We have 3 kids, 9, 11 & 14. My husband gets home from work around 5:30pm. I had aggressive breast cancer 3 years ago. Got the news it was cancer, in the middle of lunch to celebrate my daughter's one year anniversary for a liver transplant at age 11. This is my VERY LAST OPTION. The plastic surgeon backed out the night before mastectomy. The surgeon did a horrible job, left so much skin. I had to go to a wound clinic even. It's been a nightmare. My cancer/chemo was over 2 years ago. The way the surgeon left me, 2 surgeons turned me down. THIS IS MY FINAL OPTION AND I WANT TO FEEL FEMINE AGAIN. Please, I know all you woman can relate! He has to use mesh to hold the implants in place, otherwise, they'd slide all over the place (again, how she left the skin)! I will have to move as LITTLE as possible so the mesh gets a GOOD latch on to the implant. The mesh can NOT pull away from my skin & implant. Our kids keep us busy as heck. Meals prepared would be a Godsend. I'm pretty sure I'll be wrapped at first. I'll have drain tubes, I have to just be very careful and move as little as possible! Short notice! Surgery is this Thursday, husband off work Thurs & Fri. So if people can bring dishes starting Friday evening, Godsend. We have plenty of room in the fridge & freezer! It's been a long & winding road with several hiccups! I'm so excited.
