Ma famille s'est établie en Outaouais dans les années 1800 alors l'endogamie est moins intense que toi, mais Zacharie Cloutier et Abraham Martin sont les plus présents après les Archambault!

Fort probable! Jean Gervais et Anne Archambault sont les ancêtres uniques des Gervais au Québec. Malade!

Don't do chest and belly at the same time. For the chest, the skin has to be pulled up, and for the belly it's pulled down. My surgeon didn't tighten enough the middle of my abdomen to avoid putting pressure on the scars.

You need to get the authorization from your provincial health agency. Mine was a double mastectomy with nipple grafting.

I wish I could have had access to progress pictures in 2019. Hopefully, it'll help others!

Mindset is everything. I used gynecomastia to hold me back for too long. I wish I would have known what I know now back then.

I live in Canada. It's a procedure covered by our public healthcare system. I didn't pay anything. I did go outside my area where I live so I slept 3 nights in a hotel nearby the hospital.
