Life Reconstructed - Harms, Kim

Sommaire:
Whether facing mastectomy and breast reconstruction due to a cancer diagnosis or a genetic predisposition to the disease, the process is filled with uncertainty, difficult questions, intense emotions, and life-altering decisions that must be made in quick order.

In Life Reconstructed, Kim Harms details her own experience, the experiences of others, plus extensive research, delving into the physical, emotional, psychological, and relational aspects of mastectomy and breast reconstruction, featuring:

- input from medical professionals,
- a detailed look at the distinct differences between breast reconstruction and breast augmentation (It's not a boob job!)

ceptional.
