Willgates:




what are you saying?

Fussbot: click like if u didnt know the meaning of mastectomy

demelza: Its called sarcasm

Ayorh4you: Love goes beyond bosom and other physical attractions. If there was love when the bosom was present, then I think there should be love when the bosom is gone. For me, its a YES YES YES

bibinwaka: my dear cancer is hereditary. tink of ur kids do u wnt dat.
just my own 10kobo opinion. no offence.

Cold blooded: do u really care for her? Can you condone with her condition when u marry?....if u really meant d sweet words you've been telling her, den dis is d time to prove it

Nweike1:
Majority of cases of breast cancer are sporadic, meaning non hereditary. Only about 5% have a mutation in the BRCA 1 and 2 gene responsible for hereditary breast and ovarian cancers. It is this group that benefit from prophylactic mastectomies ( and oophorectomies)

dr dams: Would you propose to ur gf after Mastectomy?

In her quest to prevent cancerous growth, she decided to cut off her bossom and replace with an artificial one.

You initially had plans and was waiting for it to actualize before making the move prior its occurence.
Would dat halt ur intention of walking her down the aisle? after all love endures....

(those asking for d meaning,
MASTECTOMY IS D MEDICAL TERM FOR D REMOVAL OF ONE OR BOTH BR*EASTS. USUALLY DONE TO TREAT BR*EAST CANCER ; IN SOME CASES, WOMEN & men believed to be @ high risk of br*east cancer have the operation as a preventive measure..)

Sisi_Kill: @ OP
I find it hard to sympathize with you because you didn't tell your GF you have a thing for walking corpses.

You should have been specific about your preference before the surgery...now you have to deal with a healthy woman as opposed to a cancer ridden, hair losing, body aching, vomiting every minute, lethargic and often times wheelchair bound woman (is it the utter helplessness that turns you on or the moans from severe pains? I know...it must be the sallow skin! Oh never mind...I don't wanna know)

My only advice is for you to just go to the nearest cancer ward and find a woman, who was unfortunate enough (fortunate for you of course ) not to have taken preventive measures before the cancer hit and propose to her....after all she still has her real breasts.

Leave the one with the "fake hormoneless boobies" alone ojare...some poor sod who can see beyond his own needs to understand her reasons for doing it will scoop her up in no time.

15 years down the line when he still has his wife by his side to help raise his kiddies and you have...well ya know, guess who gets the last laugh? That's right....YOU! Because you have...had a wife with hormone laden brestisis.

canalily: and what abt wen he has been strugglng to gather money 4 marriage nd the grl breaks away saying she has waited 4 lng? Is there lv? Haz she shown love?

eldoradoxx: It is very unsavoury of you to have made such irritating comment on people who are sick. It is wicked and insensitive of you to do this. Atleast 1 or two persons reading your comments must have lost or nursing a cancer patient and its unfair for you to write that. Moderator pls remove this rubbish.

You know what's offensive? Someone using the fact that a woman chooses to place health over vanity against her.

Do you know how many women are in the cancer ward right now because their fear of reactions like OP kept them from being proactive?

Do you know how many women balked at taking preventive measures like getting a mastectomy because they didn't want to be unattractive in the eyes of the men in their lives?

Do you? Do you?

When you do then come back and talk to me about offensive. Until then I'm gonna have to say please STFU because you obviously have nothing of worth to say. You don't find the thread offensive (in case it flew right over your head, OP is more worried about his need to touch "real breast" than the hereditary aspect of this horrible disease...which is by far a more compelling cause for concern) yet you find my comment about the REALITIES of Cancer offensive....what a joke you are.

dr dams: D case of cancer being hereditary remains a subject of debate even amongst researchers..

I am fortunate to have a partner, Brad Pitt, who is so loving and supportive. So to anyone who has a wife or girlfriend going through this, know that you are a very important part of the transition. Brad was at the Pink Lotus Breast Center, where I was treated, for every minute of the surgeries. We managed to find moments to laugh together. We knew this was the right thing to do for our family and that it would bring us closer. And it has.

For any woman reading this, I hope it helps you to know you have options. I want to encourage every woman, especially if you have a family history of breast or ovarian cancer, to seek out the information and medical experts who can help you through this aspect of your life, and to make your own informed choices.

Cancer is still a word that strikes fear into people’s hearts, producing a deep sense of powerlessness. But today it is possible to find out through a blood test whether you are highly susceptible to breast and ovarian cancer, and then take action.

My own process began on Feb. 2 with a procedure known as a “nipple delay,” which rules out disease in the breast ducts behind the nipple and draws extra blood flow to the area. This causes some pain and a lot of bruising, but it increases the chance of saving the nipple.

Two weeks later I had the major surgery, where the breast tissue is removed and temporary fillers are put in place. The operation can take eight hours. You wake up with drain tubes and expanders in your breasts. It does feel like a scene out of a science-fiction film. But days after surgery you can be back to a normal life.

Nine weeks later, the final surgery is completed with the reconstruction of the breasts with an implant. There have been many advances in this procedure in the last few years, and the results can be beautiful.

Sisi_Kill: About 4 months ago, the famous actress had a mastectomy done and she wrote an OP ED about the experience. Here's an excerpt from that article on the role the man in her life played.



In case some of you don't know what a mastectomy entails, here's a step by step detail on what's done.



OPs girlfriend went through all of that and instead of praying she recovers well, he is here whining about losing out on a chance to touch real breast...and that's not offensive at all. Welcome to bizzaro world, y'all.

For those interested, you can read more about Jolie's procedure HERE and about mastectomy HERE

To all the lovely women suffering from this horrible disease, I pray God heals you in Jesus name.

To every woman out there, please if you think there is a possibility you might have breast cancer (based on family history) please get yourselves check. Heck even if you don't think there is a posibility still get yourself checked. Don't worry about any other person's opinion. What is important is your health.

ibkaye: Don't propose to her and prevent her from making one of the biggest mistakes of her life in case she says yes, gahd

ileobatojo:

Nope. There is no such debate whatsoever. There are hereditary types of cancer including brea*st cancer.

Sisi_Kill:
Lol! IB...where have you been?!

I agree with you jare, pray to God OP does not propose. Let the girl go her merry way.

Can you imagine....read that and just shook my head. How would he know when all he cares about is his right to touch breasts with hormones.

dr dams: Egbami o!! Where did I talk abt touching hormones..

1. PROLACTIN is an hormones dat facilitate milk production - my tot abt hormones here was breastfeeding and d motherly bond.

2. U r contradicting urself. Ok as pple av said here, its hereditary, meaning even cutting it off wont stop it frm transferring to ur offspring.
Dat simply implies that all ur generations will keep cutting their breast off.
If it sex linked, most females in ur generation will be breastless ( if they choose to be proactive as u said)

3. The fact that its hereditary even makes d matter worse.

Sisi_Kill:
Lol! No be you say read between the lines. Your intitial post before you modified it was more particular about the artificial boob and subsequents posts touched on the lack of hormones in the artificial breasts. In the grand scheme of things I.e life and deathn what does it matter if she has artificial breasts?

You lot drool over breast implants done for the sake of pure vanity, yet a woman putting her health first becomes an issue to be discussed....what gives naa?!!

As for the other part of your post talking about contradiction of herederity and surgery....might I suggest you go do more reading on the subject?
