I had a double mastectomy with immediate DIEP flap breast reconstruction in 2016. I cannot say enough about DiepCfoundation. I came broken and found light and wholeness, education, and emotional support from a wonderful group of breast cancer survivors and specialists in the world of microsurgery. I am amazed what a difference the Foundation will make for our future daughters

Fitting in with the world of breast cancer as a BRCA+ Previvor is not always easy to do. I’ve had the double mastectomy with DIEP flap reconstruction, but not the cancer diagnosis. The DiepCfoundation is a place I have felt warmly welcomed to learn, encourage, and educate others.

My plastic surgeon suggested I join the DiepC Foundation support group prior to my surgery. Such a wealth of information and help for those, like me, who had so many questions concerning Diep Flap. I’m still learning something new everyday from these incredible group of women.

I had a prophylactic double mastectomy in January 2020 and as part of my research into reconstruction options, I discovered the DiepC Foundation. The medically based information provided by the foundation answered many of my questions and also helped me compile questions for my surgeons. I was not a candidate for Diep due to previous surgeries and limited abdominal tissue and I chose implants for reconstruction. Even though I chose implants, I received nothing but support from the amazing group members and administrators. DiepC Foundation is a wonderful resource for women who are contemplating reconstruction after mastectomy.
