Description

Michelle went through mastectomies with implant reconstruction, and developed a significant capsular contraction, in part from radiation. She went on to have a latissimus flap reconstruction to repair this, and is now feeling great and enjoying life. This podcast was recorded the week before I lost Miles, and it is nice to hear me sounding happy, relaxed and care free.
