For some reason I have been equating in my mind recovery from a mastectomy as being similar to top surgery. Apparently not, looks like it's going to be pretty easy for her. Then of course it's just back to hurry up and wait a few days for pathology till we figure out what's really going on.
Here's hoping for no complications…

Hi, Kelt. My understanding is the difference is that they take the lymph nodes out with a standard mastectomy. I don't understand why it would be easy?
On the other hand, in the scheme of things, top surgery isn't really bad. Depends on what you are comparing it to, of course.
You and your mom are in my thoughts (like you are every day, I am just too shitty of a friend to reach out to you.
). I love ya, brother.
