Ladies, if you had a history of cancer and your breasts endlessly grew painful lumps that required painful procedures and surgeries...

Would you get a mastectomy?

I'm going to talk to my doc about it soon. I don't care anymore. I'm ugly and weird as it is, I just want the worry and pain gone.

Your breasts do not define your femininity. Yes I would have the surgery. You need to be healthy and worry free. Once properly healed , what I would do if it were me would be to choose a beautiful tattoo design that would cover the scars. It would be a meaningful piece of art that would celebrate your fight for life and the amazing strength you'll have developed because of going through these experiences. Praying for you lovely lady xx
