Lots of cancer in my family. I had genetic testing done and found out that I have the PALB2 mutation. Four months ago, I had my ovaries removed and last month I had the first of my cancer prevention breast surgeries. I’m having the DIEP flap surgery done July 9.
Hi Jeanette. Please let us know if the Foundation can be of any support. We do have a private Facebook group if you are interested in joining. DiepCJourney: Breast Reconstruction after Mastectomy. You are making strides in your future given your genetic mutation. I know it's not easy and we applaud you. ♥
I am not sure how much this young nurse In interviewed had to lose. I am guessing it was under the supervision and suggestions of her surgeon and how I would handle it.
Thanks for sharing!
Always great to hear from you Kathleen. Thank you.

How much weight did you need to lose?
