Xu Wei'en (44) was diagnosed with breast cancer, undergoing left breast removal and reconstruction, and having an implant placed in her right breast. She has shared her post-surgery mental journey, encouraging many fellow patients. Yesterday, she wrote that she had been holding herself together until she came across the book 'Breast Punk', which instantly moved her to tears. Meant to be a touching post, she unexpectedly uploaded a 'nip slip' photo. After a friend's reminder, she hurriedly deleted it, and couldn't help but joke: 'Turns out I'm so comfortable with myself.'
Yesterday, Xu Wei'en wrote that the book 'Breast Punk' was like a mirror, allowing her to see herself before and after the surgery from a third-person perspective — all the fear, strength, and the vulnerability she couldn’t express, all truly existed. She revealed that she started crying uncontrollably halfway through the book, 'not because of pain, but because I finally understood how far I've come.'
Along with her post, Xu Wei'en also uploaded several photos, unaware that one of them accidentally showed a 'nip slip'. After a friend pointed it out, she quickly deleted the photo, but still laughed at herself: 'Turns out I'm already so comfortable with myself.' What was meant to be a bittersweet post unexpectedly turned into something humorous, and netizens praised her bravery.
