Not exactly in your shoes, more like in your sandals or maybe flip-flops. I’m 80 and have decided after DCIS in 2002 and now ILC almost 3 years ago, I’ll agree to the mastectomy. But certainly not a reconstruction.Contraindications with both types of meds after surgery.
I have absolutely no desire to live forever, nor do I want to live a degraded life! so I support your thoughtful process of wanting to be in charge of your own life.
Dig into the writings of Dr Zeke Emanuel, an oncologist and bioethicist ViceProvost at Univ Penn & Chair of Medical Ethics and Health Policy. Especially in the Atlantic, read his article “Why I Hope to Die at 75”, (NOT in support of euthanasia OR suicide). Just another piece of this process we are all going through beginning with birth!
Prayers for you to be strong…
