Subject: Please read MESSAGE FROM A NURSE
>
> From a nurse:
>
> I'll never forget the look in my patients eyes
> when I had to tell them they had to go home with the drains, new
> exercises
> and no breast.
>
> I remember begging the Doctors to keep these
> women in the hospital longer, only to hear that they
> would, but their hands were tied by the insurance companies.
>
> So there I sat with my patients, giving them the
> instructions they needed to take care of themselves, knowing full well
> they didn't grasp half of what I was saying, because the glazed,
> hopeless,
> frightened look spoke louder than the quiet. 'Thank You', they
> muttered.
>
> A mastectomy is when a woman's breast is removed
> in order to remove cancerous breast cells/tissue.
> If you know anyone who has had a Mastectomy, you
> may know that there is a lot of discomfort and pain afterwards.
> Insurance companies are trying to make mastectomies an
> outpatient procedure.
>
> Let's give women the chance to recover properly
> in the hospital for 2 days after surgery.
>
> It takes 2 seconds to do this and is very
> important .. Please take the time and do it really quick!
>
> Please send this to everyone in your address
> book.
>
> If there was ever a time when our voices and
> choices should be heard, this is one of those times.
>
> If you're receiving this, it's because I think
> you will take t h e 30 seconds to go to vote on this issue and send it
> on to others. You know who will do the same.
>
> There's a bill called the Breast Cancer Patient
> Protection Act which will require Insurance Companies to cover a minimum
> 48-hour hospital stay for patients undergoing a mastectomy. It's about
> eliminating the 'drive-through mastectomy' where women are forced to go
> home
> just a few hours after surgery, against the wishes of their doctor, still
> groggy from anesthesia and sometimes with drainage tubes still attached.
>
> Lifetime Television has put this bill on their Web page with a
> petition drive to show your support. Last year over half
> the House signed on.
>
> PLEASE!! Sign the petition by clicking on the
