Welcome! When I found out I carried the BRCA2 mutation, I knew tough choices were ahead. I made the decision to have a double mastectomy and hysterectomy, and let me tell you—recovery takes courage, patience, and a LOT of pillows. I created this board to share the exact items that helped me through surgery, hospital stays, and healing at home. These aren’t just “nice to haves”—they’re true lifesavers that made a difficult time more manageable, both physically and emotionally. You’ll find: Hospital bag must-haves, Recovery comforts for home, Clothing that actually works post-surgery, and Wellness + emotional support items. I hope this list helps you (or someone you love) feel a little more prepared and a little less alone on this journey.
