Yes, you would.
If it worries you so much, remember that breast cancer is unlikely to happen before 40. That gives you 15 years. Let's put them at 5000. Stretch it over 15 years, that 334 a year. 28 a month. Put it in a high interest account, add a little bit to compensate for inflation.
If you change your mind about it, you'll still have a decent amount of money saved for whatever you want.

Btw, I do understand how you feel, I had a similar experience and I had nightmares for years after that. I don't care about what people say, I do think that it's a legitimated worry. I feel like it gets better as you grow older, like in the late 30's.
