At the time of initial diagnosis had a 1 & 2yr. old, chose to only have one breast removed rather than full masectomy. She underwent intensive chemo & radiation. When it came back, it was in practically every organ. Realizing this was 10 yrs. ago & a lot has changed, I can't imagine why they would have given a choice of complete masectomy? The only thing I can think of that may have influenced her decision was that she had a jerk of a husband who made her cancer all about him & that he only had 1 real breast left for his pleasure. I know, sick, but heard him actually give her a hard time about this in front of others even! Real loser. Anyway, I am recently diagnosed so it has brought all of this to the forefront again. Any thoughts on how they proceeded 10 yrs. ago?
