Re: [MOL] mastectomy exercises

[Donna Jennings <firefly@islc.net>]

I am a mastectomy survivor and will tell you that your wife's doctor
will tell her what exercise is best for her.  We are all very different
and react differently to everything.  I would suggest that you make
sure no one takes blood or blood pressures from your wife's left arm. 
Pls. know that we will keep your wife and you in our prayers.  Pls.
know that sometimes depression sets in and the most important thing to
fighting cancer is the bodies spirit.  Good luck, Lillian
