I hope you understand what a gift your videos are to women and their supportive friends and family. Thank you so much. Not everyone understands people who choose to share personal experiences, but so many others definitely benefit. You're so generous and lovely, and I thank you!
Thank you Stephanie. That means a lot to me. I was thinking of starting up the videos again but wasn't sure there was interest was there so your message is timely!
Thank you for sharing your video i went for bilitereal mastectomy a week ago and afriad just like you. I just pray you recover well. When they said i had cancer no where to turn to but this public videos which gave me lot of support. When you cried i also cried. Take good care of yourself i will pray for you sorry for long text.
Going for a double on Monday, I pray I find that calm you spoke of. My sadness can be overwhelming and reality of cancer hasn't really hit. It's like living a bad dream. You did help with your upbeat attitude and smiling through the tears.
Hi. I had my left breast removed two weeks ago. i'm feeling what your feeling mentally and physically. I know your fear. It's good to hear that the scaring will look better. I cried when i first saw my scar. We're going to be okay.
Debbie Kotch you’re going to be ok! I had both breasts removed in October and it was the toughest experience my life. I’m having my implant surgery in a month and hopefully I’ll be done. You will be fine and you will change for the better. The silver linings are the best part of a cancer diagnosis. Blessings and peace to you!
Diana Clemens Hi Diana, I had my left breast removed October 2019 the cancer was in my milk ducts , calcification spots all over my breast. My options were to have a lumpectomy with radiation for six weeks and hormone therapy for 5 years. Or mastectomy I chose a mastectomy of the breast which would leave me cancer free with no other treatment. I chose not to have reconstructive surgery because I didn’t want anymore surgeries. Reconstruction requires more surgery. I was fitted with a prosthetic breast. It has been a year. I m healed. I m happy with my decision. A lot is thrown at you all at once. And I was really scared your life is changed in an instant. But I made it through and you will too. What ever you decide will be a good choice for you. You are not alone. I will keep you in my prayers. If you do choose. No reconstruction Nordstrom has a program for prosthetics after you have healed.
Thank you for your testimony. I am going to have this surgery very soon. Just diagnosed with recurrence. Searching for information and survivors's stories. Thank you and God bless.
I just want to let you know, I had this done 5 years ago and I don't recommend textured silicone implants or any for that matter....The "gummy bears" could possibly cause ALCL cancer (I have gotten the recall warning letter last July). I had them removed last March and had a few more surgeries after that because they used my own tissue, 4 flaps (2 from my ab and 2 from inner thighs, they needed 4 because I'm thin and athletic body type). I am just recovering from the last surgery (scar revision) and I love the outcome. They feel and look real and I can feel them again, furthermore, don't have to go through future surgeries to exchange them from problems implants can cause like capsular contracture and I don't have to worry about ALCL cancer. There are also other symptoms these breast implants can cause.i beg you to please do some more research and look into breast implant illnessI wish you the best and be blessed!
UNDER GRACE thank you for sharing. I never had the textured implants. As far as I know Sloan isn’t using them anymore. Glad you had a good experience with the flap surgery
I'm a few minutes in, I've got tears in my eyes. I'm going to MSCC on the 14th. For the same thing. Thank you for this video, you're making it a little better.
Thank YOU, Jenn. Your words ease anxiety of the unknown, casting light through the shadows of fear. You’ve been through what I and others are facing. I pray you’re doing well since your surgery. Sending love.
I’m 25 and just went through all of this! I had my surgery Monday and I at least cry once a day cause it’s all to much to take in! I’m so glad I found you. Thank you! I had two types of cancer on on breast so I’m happy I did what I did.
Andrea I am so sorry this happened to you - especially at such a young age. Are you a member of the FB group? Maybe that will help facebook.com/groups/LifeAfterBreastCancerwithJenRozenbaum
Thank you so much for your story. I will be having my surgery next week and the closer as time comes the more afraid I am b/c I don't know exactly what to expect. Seeing you and your story helps a lot. I hope I'm as strong as you are..
Thank you for your video! I have my bilateral Mastectomy in two days. Hope you feel better! You are a strong woman! This video has helped me. Prayers for all of us.
Thank you for sharing. I am at post op day 4. It is so helpful to go through this with you. My husband washed my hair last night. It was the best shampoo ever! Thank you again, Jen!
I had a lumpectomy back in August,chemo then was off to radiation..But got a positive Brca2 test so now I'm headed for mastectomy and ovaries..Its a journey I thought was almost complete but it's starting all over now..Thank you so much for sharing,it's good to know the process and what to expect. Love and all my best to you.
You are so brave and optimistic person. This is the actitud we need to Star the battle. Live, love and laughs and put everything in God’s hands. God bless you ❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏
What are the life changes you refer to in this video? You are brave and I appreciate you. Thank you for helping me prepare for bilateral mastectomy and expanders.
I just had a double mastectomy last week and tissue expanders put in a week ago. They had to take all my tissue. Then still found more cancer with a bunch more things going.
