What to Expect When Expecting a Mastectomy with Erica Neubert Campbell

Erica Neubert Campbell was happily going about her mommy, wife and business lives when her breast cancer diagnosis arrived. It wasn’t unexpected. Her mom had died of breast cancer years earlier.  What was unexpected was that doctors could only give her medical details.

Erica opted for double mastectomy and decided to chronicle - with photographs – the approximately 18 months she and her breasts endured her journey.

Today Erica discusses:

• Her mom
• Lumpectomies and mastectomies
• The diagnosis and her children
• The BRCA gene
• Excerpt: “Deciding what to do next Is like choosing a deadly weapon When I didn’t pick the battle.”
• The decision to have implants
• The book that grew out of her journals and photos

As always, I ask Erica what I haven’t asked her that she wants women to know – her answer to that makes this conversation even more worth listening to.
