I don't have any suggestions or advice. I just wanted to thank you for
sharing that with us. I now feel very blessed after hearing your story
about
your abscesses. I sometimes forget there are others out there far
worse off
than me. So thank you for waking me up to smell the roses again. ;-)
I am not being snotty or anything, I truely mean that. I think here of
late
I have needed a wake up call and I think it has been coming but I
didn't
hear the ring. Thanks again.
I sure hope you find out something that will work that wont mean full
mastectomy. I don't know how you deal with this at all.

I have to agree with Squirrely Jo that we need to be awakened to smell
the roses.
Unfortunately, I think that if five different doctors/surgeons have
recommended the full mastectomy, I would advise you to have it done.
They can do reconstruction surgery while you are out, if you choose
it. Sometimes, we forget what it feels like to be "normal".
FEARS
Known fears are uncomfortable,
Unknown fears a danger-
They haunt the back, pinch the neck-
I feel like an overused Ranger:
You know, the one who's 'lone.
But I'm not really, you see,
For I have God, family, and friends
To give support to me.

God didn't promise us

If it were, who would try
