Rewritten Me

Having a mastectomy can be devastating. Sifting through all the information about reconstruction is overwhelming. The medical jargon bamboozling! And it can be just plain scary. And lonely. But you’re not alone.

Luan Lawrenson-Woods has a lived experience of breast cancer and breast reconstruction. She is the creator and host of the Breast Recon 101 Live Q&A series on Instagram, an Australian 'first' where the audience ask surgeons anything about reconstruction after a mastectomy. On the Rewritten Me pod Luan talks to leading breast and reconstructive plastic surgeons about all aspects of reconstruction – nipples, belly buttons, foobs, DIEP flap and staying flat. She also talks to healthcare professionals who can help with everyday practical advice to support your mental, physical and emotional wellbeing.

And Luan talks to amazing women from the breast cancer community who have a lived and felt experience of reconstruction and generously share their stories with you.

Rewritten Me is here to help you make an holistic, informed decision that’s right for you, so that you can have a say in how you re-write your story.
