Upcoming surgery

On Monday, 2/27, I will have another mastectomy. This time it will be the right side. It is my choice to have it removed. I want to lower the risks of developing another cancer in that breast, and not be lopsided any more. I am choosing to not do any reconstruction at this time. That would mean 2-3 more surgeries, and that is just not what I want to spend my time doing. I can always have it in the future if I decide that I really want it.
I will also have my Fallopian tubes out at the same time. This will lower the risks of developing ovarian cancer.
Both surgeries will happen at the same time and they will both be outpatient surgeries.
Once again, I would really appreciate prayers for successful surgeries, minimal pain, and quick recovery. :-)

Here's a fun picture of us living life and indoor-skydiving. Sooo fun!!
