  • Hi there

    I have just had a mastectomy and reconstruction done at the same time 3 weeks ago. I found its amazing what God can get you through. I am now up and about doing everyday chores. Just remember to initially take pain killers every four hours if you need them and start the exercises that is given in your pack straight away so you don’t feel stiff.  This can be an apprehensive time but remember you are not alone. There are lots of ladies that are going through the same thing as you.  I believe God won’t give me a burden I can’t bare.  I will pray for you when I pray for all the people out there battling cancer.

    All the best and remember you can do this x
