From a nurse:
I'll never forget the look in my patient’s eyes when I had to tell them
they had to go home with the drains, new exercises and no breast.
I remember begging the Doctors to keep these women in
The hospital longer, only to hear that they would, but their hands were
tied by the insurance companies.
So there I sat with my patients, giving them the instructions they needed
to take care of themselves, knowing full well they didn't grasp half of
what I was saying, because the glazed, hopeless, frightened look spoke
louder than the quiet 'Thank You' they muttered.
A mastectomy is when a woman's breast is removed in order to
remove cancerous breast cells/tissue.
If you know anyone who has had a Mastectomy, you may know that there is a
lot of discomfort and pain afterwards.
Insurance companies are trying to make mastectomies an
outpatient procedure.
Let's give women the chance to recover properly in the hospital for 2 days
after surgery.
It takes 2 seconds to do this and is very important .. Please take the time
and do it really quick!
Please send this to everyone in your address book.
If there was ever a time when our voices and choices should be heard, this
is one of those times.
If you're receiving this, it's because I think you will take t h e 30
seconds to go to vote on this issue and send it on to others.
You know who will do the same.
There's a bill called the Breast Cancer Patient Protection Act which will
require Insurance Companies to cover a minimum 48-hour hospital stay for
patients undergoing a mastectomy. It's about eliminating the 'drive-through
mastectomy' where women are forced to go home just a few hours after
surgery, against the wishes of their doctor, still groggy from anesthesia
and sometimes with drainage tubes still attached.
Lifetime Television has put this bill on their Web page with a petition
drive to show your support. Last year over half the House signed on.
PLEASE!! Sign the petition by clicking on the Web site below. You need not
give more than your name and zip code number.

A very worthwhile petition if you’ve ever experienced a mastectomy first hand or shared the experience with a loved one……
