Yes it is a shame but on the other hand, I'm happier without him. I'm sure he would like to have stayed with me as long as he could pursue others but I could not be with someone who couldn't appreciate me as I was at the time. It was after my mastectomy but before reconstruction when he first strayed (that I know off). At that stage my remaining breast was completely untouched. Since then, it's been lifted to match the fake one but it still has full sensation. He rejected me over a tiny part that was missing from my body without consideration of what still remained.
I have had a few years to come to terms with changes in my life. The last 2 years have been hard due to the deaths of 4 people that were important to me, including my father. I look after my 6 year old grandson and my daughter has 2 other children that she needs help with. My mind is not on the past.
