Actually, it has been about seven months at this point since I had my prophylactic mastectomy.  The last surgery was in January for the reconstruction, and I am feeling human again.  The recovery from my mastectomy was rough, but all of that is over, and I am here to tell you shit gets better.  If you read from this point, you are agreeing to my updated privacy policy and my use of commissioned links in the post.
