Mastecotomy Petition
Subject: Mastectomy Hospitalization Bill
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!
Breast Cancer Hospitalization Bill - Important legislation for all women.
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 the 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 web site below. You need
not give more than your name and zip code number.

This takes about 2 seconds. PLEASE PASS THIS ON to your friends and
family, and on behalf of all women.
Thank you.
