“I have experienced a huge sense of relief knowing that my risk of breast cancer has decreased so significantly. However, now that relief has subsided I’m learning to feel sexy in my body again. I don’t need to wear a bra anymore and the surgery has left me with numbness in my breasts. I’ve recently been trying to find wire free bras to wear, just for myself, to make me feel sexier and more confident on a daily basis.”
