About me

Gender Female
Occupation Registered Nurse
Location New Mexico, United States
Introduction Hi there. I am 27 years old. I am BRCA2+, a mommy of a 6 year old and a 4 year old. I've been married for almost 7 years, and I am a registered nurse. In the past year, I have come to discover my fate of being BRCA2+, and in July 2010, I decided to have prophylactic bilateral mastectomies-skin sparing, non nipple sparing. I am writing this blog to hopefully spread the awareness/help others in my situation/bring humor to this situation/educate others about BRCA gene mutations, surgery options, post op, and complete with all of my post op pics! I am very open and light hearted with all of this stuff, so feel free to ask me anything.
Interests My kids, my family, nursing, running, guitar, photography, hiking, being outside, boating, reading, cooking, animals, movies, sarcasm, coffee, and sunshine.
