When a young woman in particular receives a cancer diagnosis it can be life-changing. Your life may be severely changed, and you could die. You may potentially lose one of the things that define you as a woman. Your attractiveness will definitely be impacted. Your ability to breastfeed may be eliminated. Your ability to have children may be negated if you want to live, as some chemos are known to reduce or eliminate fertility, as well as your hair, among other things. You may be forced to harvest eggs if you want to ensure you'll be able to have children. If all these bad things may potentially happen to you, wouldn't you prefer to be able to return some semblance of normality after it is all over, and have your clothes still fit? I think it is a blessing that we live in an age where, whether for cosmetic reasons, or post cancer, a woman has the option to return herself. Just like I thank God that I live in 2021 where we have excellent dentistry and that we don't have to live with missing teeth, rotting teeth, and that through things like fillings, root canals, dental hygiene, regular cleanings, and implants we can retain, or rebuild our teeth til death.
