I am so sorry that you did not have proper care. My friend in France had drains due to the type of DCIS cancer. She was kept in the hospital for two days with nurses emptying the drains during the middle of the night. She felt very cared for during this hard time, surgeon attended to her before she left the hospital. Our health care must do better.

Thank you for your empathy with my situation. Our health care is getting too greedy and the quality is going down the hill. Hospitals don’t pay much for doctors and nurses, yet charges for hospital stay is outrages. It’s all about squeezing as much money out of patients. Drugs cost double or triple the price in other countries. I found out that I could get 3-month supply of Exemestane in Canada for one month do supply in US. I wish there were some regulations to control the cost and the quality of our healthcare system. Totally agree with you. Our healthcare must do better! 🤗
