Dear Friends that will have LUMPECTOMY...
Just wanted to comment on this. This does Happen to people who spend long times in the hospital. I've had the experience of spending a month for a heart repair and a huge staph infection.

However, I stayed on top of it and I'm winning the battle. Just thought I would share Have a good one.
