Heather, in the long run this was more than likely a very good decision.  That is a cancer that is nothing to take risks with.  My hopes for a speedy recovery and glad you have a good support system in your fiance, sounds like he is a keeper.

It was a wise decision for me.My mom,younger brother,friends,oldest son,daughter and youngest son have been there for support.My fiance,he has been in my life for 3 years and a keeper.My Aunt Renee is an ovarian cancer survivor,hers was caught early and decided on the hysterectomy too.Now my daughter whom is 19 has decided to get tested for this,said wise decision to her.Later on in her life,she can make the decision to have this done.
