WORTH IT
I was diagnosed with Breast Cancer at the age or 33, I am now 45. I waited 11 years to have reconstruction done. Even though I still had both of my real breasts I felt like NEMO- the fish from "Finding NEMO" (he had one normal flipper and one small little flipper) I had one side that was a DD and the other a very small C where the tumor had been removed and I wore a partial prosthetic.
My gosh, I'm 35 and can't imagine going through this as young as you did. I'm so glad to hear that you are pleased with the way your reconstruction turned out.
Do you mind me asking if you ever considered having the DD brought down, instead of the small C built up?
