Greens,
I've been in your shoes before and I know how scary it is. My wife, Jen, was diagnosed with breast cancer 4 years ago now and had to have a double mastectomy. We then had to get 18 weeks of chemo, 32 treatments of radiation, and then reconstructive surgery (tram flap procedure). It was tough but with the help of God, family, and friends made it easier. Jen has been cancer free now for 3 years and every thing is back to normal for the most part. Remember to always try to stay positive because your wife's mental state/recovery will depend on it.
If you have questions about any thing, a heads up on what to expect, or just some one to talk to call me 706-978-9531.
