So I had to change my rheumy appointment as I had to have an operation. It turns out I have breast cancer, and with my huge family history of breast cancer plus the type of cancer they've found in me, the surgeon is recommending a preventative bilateral mastectomy. I hope I look as good as Angelina Jolie

Angelina had a double mastectomy for prevention, does that mean her lymph nodes and axillary nodes were also removed, Doc?

Shikha's Story - Part II
Starting from where I left.... I started chemotherapy first week of April, 2008. My hair was shorter by choice to avoid the shock of losing it all at once. I have no idea of the emotions that my mom would have gone through, those of my husband, my 2 year old. The focus is at me. We read and read
