if your wife had breast cancer and the removed one breast would you still be with them

if your wife had breast cancer and the removed one breast would you still be with them?
i was 26 yrs old when they removed my breast because of cancer. my husband stood by my side and loves me with only one breast. Do you think you could ever fall in love with someone that lost a breast? Reconstruction is not an option because my cancer is to high risk.

yes

im straight. but thats what you call a true love ;) hope your breast cancer will be okaay .
6 :
Good for your husband. I think if you really love someone, you should be by their side no matter what.
7 :
im not a lesbian but yes i would its not all about the outside.
8 :
Im a woman, but the man must be a real a**hole to leave over something like that.
9 :
so sorry to hear about having breast cancer. Sounds like things are going well though. I say if the spouse truley loves you, there is no question. If they were to leave you because you only had one breast...then that person never really loved you
10 :
Yes of course,I fell in love with her not her breast.
11 :
YES! Of course. That would be sooooooooo fcked up if someone left their wife over a breast. You should love your wife for WHO she is NOT what she has.
12 :
Hey! Of course I could but im a girl so........ yeah not seeing that in my future.lol But you found a good guy just make sure you stick by him like he stuck by you.... God bless!!!!
13 :
yes. if i was married we were in the same situation, i'd still love her and stand by her. i'd hope she would do the same for me if i got sick or something.
14 :
Obviously, I can't answer your question, but just to comment. You've got a great husband. He realizes that you are not your breasts.
15 :
I couldn't fall for a girl with only one breast but if it happened to my wife, yes of course I would stand by her...
16 :
that b*** better still be with me
17 :
Absolutely! I mean, I am a woman but if my boyfriend or husband had cancer and they had to remove his testicles or something I would stand by his side. I guess it really depends on how stable the relationship is before the cancer. Also, you are a very lucky woman to have such a good man by your side! :)
18 :
I think yes, if a man couldn't still love you than he definitley has his own issues.
19 :
of course I would stay with that person, if I loved them. You are more than a breast and you wouldn't consider leaving if he had a testicle removed now would you. When we grow up, we are supposed to see the entire person, not just the wrapping.
20 :
Yes. any marriage based on looks isn't a real marriage.
21 :
absolutely, yes!
22 :
It will be sad if they say no.
23 :
My foster mom had breast cancer, luckily they caught it in the beginning stage, but she had to have 3 surgerys to remove it plus the reconstructive surgery. She had chemo and radiation of course and she started having even more dramatic mood swings, hair loss, etc.. Her husband of (at the time) 33 or 34 years was right by her side every sick day, along with all of her foster children and real children and family. It was a long 3 years of struggle but we never gave up and knew she was too stubborn to die from this. She is now cancer free. But even without the reconstructive surgery we all still would have been by her side every step of the way. Her husband would be there every second that he could. He is a great man and my foster dad! ;) So absolutely yes, and if someone says they would leave.. well your just selfish and messed up!
24 :
Oh hell yes i would stay with my wife. Nothing would tear me away from my wife (if i was married). Yes i think i would cause things like that don't matter to me

I am just finishing up treatment, when I first found out I was having a real hard time and these are a few quotes that helped allot. I will be praying for your friend, believe she is going to be okay, the mind is an unbelievably strong tool. Live strong is exactly I guess what it says. It’s one thing to live, but it’s another thing to live strong, to attack the day and attack your life with a whole new attitude. This was a gift for me. I guess before the illness I just lived. Now, after the illness, I live strong. I’m Lance Armstrong, and I’m a seven-year cancer survivor. If children have the ability to ignore all odds and percentages, then maybe we can all learn from them. When you think about it, what other choice is there but to hope? We have two options, medically and emotionally: give up, or fight like hell. ~Lance Armstrong These two are my favorites: The block of granite which was an obstacle in the pathway of the weak, became a stepping-stone in the pathway of the strong. ~Thomas Carlyle I have heard there are troubles of more than one kind. Some come from ahead and some come from behind. But I've bought a big bat. I'm all ready you see. Now my troubles are going to have troubles with me! ~Dr. Seuss

"The body knows how to heal itself, all you need to do is assist it" Dr Richard SHulze "Don't limit yourself. Many people limit themselves to what they think they can do. You can go as far as your mind lets you. What you believe, remember, you can achieve." "The greatest pollution problem we face today is negativity. Eliminate the negative attitude and believe you can do anything. Replace 'if I can, I hope, maybe' with 'I can, I will, I must." Mary Kay Ash "Work out your own salvation. Do not depend on others." "We must pick out what is good for us where we can find it." "If anything is worth doing, do it with all your heart." Budda Best of health to you and your friend

Look at the people who died without any notice from Allah but who is going to God almighty and knows in advance are lucky ones as they can do lots of good deeds to please Him so my dear be happy and kind to the ones to whom you are most dearer this world is the practical lab and our examination is going on real life is after death in the heaven if we clear the examination .Every one will go there one day or another and waiting for the invitation from God

Your friend is extraordinarily young to have breast cancer, so may find it hard to find others in the same position. I suggest she tries the forums on these two websites - both have a forum for younger women: http://www.breastcancer.org http://www.breastcancercare.org.uk Both sites have a lot of useful information too, especially the first one
2 :
She can try connecting with Young Survival Coalition which supports young people with breast cancer. Young women indeed get breast cancer: http://www.youngsurvival.org/ She might also wish to connect with other young adult cancer patients . . the younger patients tend to get gather together by age rather than by cancer types. Planet Cancer http://www.planetcancer.org/html/index.php I'm too young for this http://i2y.com/ Young adults with cancer http://www.vitaloptions.org/yawc.htm Lance Armstrong Foundation (focus on young adults with cancer) http://www.livestrong.org/site/c.khLXK1PxHmF/b.2660611/k.BCED/Home.htm Good luck to your friend
