David, Sorry to hear about your wife having breast cancer. Is it ductal in situ? Is it non-invasive? I had ductal in situ this summer and only needed a lumpectomy as they were able to get clear margins. I hope she has a similar diagnosis. I was stage 0.
Be forwarned that breast MRIs are extremely sensitive and throw a lot of false positives. I had one which led them to do a biopsy on other breast which turned out to be all clear.
Good luck to your wife and keep us posted on her treatment.
Take care, Eileen
