@Twinklestar

She is mourning the loss of a body part. She is being honest. Is she married and does she have children? A mourning/grieving is very normal however hopefully she will find that life is about more than breasts, uterus,etc….if she has already experienced childbirth, marriage they might be less detrimental

Some married women might feel worse losing a breast.. they might not feel ‘complete’ or might worry their partner won’t find them attractive anymore.. Also I’d imagine being ‘uneven’.. even just seeing the way you look in clothes could be quite distressing (and I don’t mean having them on show)

Here in the UK most women are given the option of having implants after removal.. likewise men can have an implant if they lose a testicle due to cancer..
