Miranda McKeon Has Double Mastectomy at 19
She posted, “The surgery that I’ve been anticipating for almost five months. This will get rid of any cancer and significantly decrease my risk of reoccurrence in the future. This also means that I will be cancer-free.”
Miranda also told her fans that she and her family have been doing a lot of research ever since she found out about cancer. She decided to have the mastectomy and feels positive about the outcome.
She went on to say, “After ten hours of meetings with surgeons and so so so much research, I truly feel like I found the perfect team. Whereas with traditional mastectomies, women are left mostly totally numb in their chest- I will have a sensation preserving mastectomy which is safe from an oncologic standpoint but more care is taken when cutting nerves and nerve grafts are done to reconstruct cut nerves. While it will certainly take a bit of time, I’m so grateful that I will return to looking and feeling like myself!”
Miranda finished her post by adding, “Today step 2/3 will be finalized with radiation to follow. As always, I can’t thank everyone enough for their continued support. The people in mu life show up for me each and every day in ways that are so tender and heartwarming. I’m one lucky girl.”
