It is now difficult for her to consider a sexuality because of this souvenir. The mammary reconstruction that was following, failed. The prothesis gave in and its contents is slowly going into her body. She is waiting for a new intervention. The idea that it is necessary to be fit to be seen, pushes away the conception of a relationship with a man. The hope to please again is fossilized in the last stage of the mammary recontruction: the tattoo of a nipple. The cancer is a reprieve which imposes to compose with the codes of a society, souvenirs and a disrupted body.
