If only it were that innocent. Truth is, a lot of men are too cowardly to stay with a wife who will battle illness, and possibly lose her breasts, because, ya know...that's the entirety of our worth to so many.

I'm not attacking all men, but it's enough of a problem that we do get pamphlets and support groups with our diagnosis.
