#83. Single Mastectomy w/o Reconstruction Wasn't My First Choice But I Am Glad It Was My Final Outcome

Love the podcast? Send us a text!In today's episode, we speak with Ria who underwent a single mastectomy direct to implant. What she wasn't expecting was the infection that occurred after her surgery. Because of the infection, the implanted needed to be removed. Then COVID-19 hit. This enabled Ria additional time to reflect on her experience with breast cancer, grieve the loss of a breast,  and ultimately decide whether or not reconstruction was right for her. You can follow our guest Ria on Instagram @Thrive.Ria____________________________________________________________Continue to connect with listerners survivors, thrivers and cancer havers on social media.
