There is always so much information coming at you at the beginning and I remember feeling an urgency to make decisions right then. 😳 I felt overwhelmed and unable to deal with the sadness I should have been feeling.
There is a group that talks a lot about mastectomy and reconstruction pros and cons. Have you read this conversation yet.

I wish I would have taken the time and had this resource when I was diagnosed. I find that slowing down and taking the time to consume as much information as possible helps me to make the best decision I can for myself.
This is a very hard time for you, have you stopped long enough to breathe yet? 💕Do you have someone to bounce thoughts around with that knows you well enough to know what is important to you?

Hi - Thank you for your response and information - I will look at the website. I have had some time to think about this, do some research and talk to the surgeon again to answer some questions. Agreed that consuming as much information as possible will help.
