Preparing for Mastectomy Surgery - What I'm Taking to the Hospital

Описание к видео Preparing for Mastectomy Surgery - What I'm Taking to the Hospital

I'm sharing about two months worth of prep in this video. Most women don't get two months to plan, so I thought I'd share my tips and ultra-preparedness plan with those who are planning a mastectomy or a lumpectomy. I will make a video soon showing how to make my scar-reduction salve.
