Breast Reconstruction following Mastectomy

Current concepts in breast reconstruction ( Prof. Stephen Kroll )
Breast cancer site (information & education)
Breast Reconstruction .
Breast reconstructive procedures.
Public www sites of breast reconstruction:
    1. My Experience with Breast Cancer (Patricia Murray's Reconstruction) This is a brave and informative single-issue site, in which Patricia Murray shares with other women photographs to demystify what a mastectomy and subsequent reconstruction will actually look like.
    2. One Woman's Reconstruction (Nancy Delaney) Another single-issue site, this one has Nancy's written journal, with many fewer photographs. You can follow along her continuing story, which is not yet completed.
    3. Under Options in Breast Reconstruction As Nancy's pages say, this is "a relatively dense description of the options in breast reconstruction."
    4. Breast Reconstruction (Univ. of Iowa Plastic Surgery) A simpler, easier-to-read overview of options. Just one page, though.
    5. Cancer Destroys, Cancer Builds (Stephanie Byram) One option is to reconstruct your life, but not your breasts. Stephanie presents a sensitive and poetic photo-and-words essay about her double mastectomy. She has not had reconstruction. Part of it: "MAGIC HANDS: These hands were the first to feel the lump. They carefully removed a few cells, then more tissue for my biopsies. These hands gave me the pathology report and comforted my pain, my loss. THESE HANDS SAVED MY LIFE."
