50 First Takes: Doing things for the first time post mastectomy

Breast Case Scenario

If you were to google how to prepare for life after a mastectomy, you would be provided with a wealth of tips, tricks, and things 'no one has told you,' and every single website targets the surgical nature of pre, during, and post-surgery. There is almost nothing considered beyond surgery, until now. This episode is about what you may be confronted with for the first time after a mastectomy. They are considerations that have nothing to do with the surgery itself, but with navigating our bodies in the world after physically healing.

Kris and Cass hope it helps breasties feel prepared and ready to take on the world psychologically and emotionally, and with more confidence than they did. It will also give those supporting someone going through this, insight into the complexity of emotions and experiences your breastie may be going through.
