thanks for your kind words. On reading this page I dont understand all the abbreviations but no doubt I will and it seems to me I have not been told very much apart from I have it and it must go because the lump that has the cells is behind the nipple and this is the only way to go. I do feel numb you are right but I also don,t know what to do next, for me. I am seeing plastic surgeon this week and also my specialist again. My daughter and her family want to move back home asap because I live on my own and that really all I remember,
