Massachusetts-Successful retrieval of breast tissues after mastectomy?
Looking to see if anyone has been able to get any part of their breasts back after removal, be it ashes or anything, I am trying to see if I can get them back, I have to remove them but I would still like them with me, I know they are just some parts of flesh but they are a part of me, and I would like to be buried with them if I can. So far pathology says I cannot have them in flesh form, my wonderful breast surgeon is looking into it further. But I was seeing if anyone else has had any success with getting theirs back in any form in Massachusetts(states probably differ)
Even if I could get them sent to a morgue and cremated and the ashes returned to me would be ideal.
