We couldn't tell the difference, but we only ever saw her dressed. Maybe that makes a difference :DRed Nomad OZhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03020668094026661054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1079589059457212218.post-24031171401360722472015-02-19T22:45:03.674-06:002015-02-19T22:45:03.674-06:00I just had the one removed.

Tested for the BRCA gene several years ago when I had better ins. Turns out I don't, but they said there were more extensive tests they could do, but I opted not to do them. Both my kids will need to be watchful, but there's more cancer in their dad's family than mine.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04473235283493762874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1079589059457212218.post-27524745678196235862015-02-19T10:25:27.881-06:002015-02-19T10:25:27.881-06:00Good choice.

My other grandma got them both off. Neither of them got breasts to replace them. The down side of that blessed piece of information is that I am probably high risk since both of them had it and my mother died of multiple meloma. But what you gonna do?? Just roll with it I guess. Blessings to you! ♥Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11564863484894692249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1079589059457212218.post-40812980740407885472015-02-18T19:44:04.732-06:002015-02-18T19:44:04.732-06:00One boob up, one boob sagging is not the conversat...One boob up, one boob sagging is not the conversation starter you want at the assisted living facility. <br />I wish the best for you with the test.

(She told me this story when she was around 80.) She had breast cancer about 30 years earlier. She had a mastectomy and reconstruction. As she aged, one boob started pointing farther and farther south, the reconstructed one remained firm and perky. Let that visual wash over you....<br />Opt for the tram flap. It's AWESOME (but you get 4 drains, just to warn you).Dyanne @ I Want Backsieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04946323852124525597noreply@blogger.com
