My Experience With Breast Cancer (Illustrated) by Patricia Murray:"In May 1985 I had a left-breast mastectomy after being diagnosed with stage 0 ductal carcinoma. Over the next two years I explored reconstruction options and then proceeded with reconstruction. During the course of the experience I took many photographs of myself documenting the different stages and the changing bodily landscape."

Prophylactic Mastectomy:"Some American women are considering prophylactic mastectomy to prevent breast cancer. Also called preventive mastectomy, it is the surgical removal of one or both breasts to try to prevent or reduce the risk of breast cancer. It involves removal of as much of the at-risk tissue as possible."
