When deciding which treatment to receive for breast cancer, I realized negative emotions can affect the body more than I thought. In August 2020, the oncological surgeon recommended removing my right breast and replacing it with a plastic reconstruction or implant. The breast had two ductal carcinoma in situs (DCIS) and lots of suspicious microcalcifications. I have the CHK2 gene mutation, am of Ashkenazi (Eastern European Jewish) heritage and am closely related to three living breast cancer survivors.

The local animal rescue explains: “Joannie was found as a stray extremely emaciated and less than half her current weight now. She was missing fur on her body, face and ears.
