"I am infinitely grateful to the donor and donor family that have made my breast reconstruction possible. They have given me a gift so valuable and important to them, which is something so beautiful, especially since they do not even know who I am! My heart is overjoyed, and words are not enough to describe my gratitude towards this family.” In 2018, Elsa underwent breast reconstruction post-mastectomy thanks to the generosity of a tissue donor. Did you know that tissue donation is an important part of post-mastectomy breast reconstruction? One skin donor's tissues can help more than 5 people undergoing breast reconstruction surgery! In honor of Breast Reconstruction Awareness (BRA) Day, support breast cancer survivors by registering your decision to be an organ, eye and tissue donor at RegisterMe.org or in your iPhone Health App. 💙💚💗 #DonateLife #BRADay MTF Biologics
