is home and resting after her surgery. She is sore but has her sunny attitude in place. Barb is currently planning on having Brad pander to her every whim.
You've already been on the computer?! Trooper extrodinaire! Could it be that the drugs haven't worn off yet...you get some rest! And like I said, keep your eye on October and it will be here before you know it, and all the healing will be done and behind you!
We're on the other side of your computer pulling for you, Barb! Get well soon!!! (I'd say *Big Hugs*, but I'll do it gently... no ouchies!) xox, my little friend!
I just want to thank you all, my 365 friends old and new.... for being so instrumental in lifting my spirits and helping me through my surgery.
I managed to get some sleep last night, but it's hard when you sleep on your side, and both sides are very sore....and I pushed it and sat up too much today...but generally speaking I am feeling a lot better than I thought I would.
I know it was an irrational fear, but I had been having such breathing problems lately, that I was so sure I wasn't going to wake up....so you can imagine my relief, now that it's over.
I decided that that is going to be my very last surgery. Fin. I just can't do it anymore.
NO reconstruction.
Yes, I will always feel self conscious of my "negative space"...but it helped me tremendously to post the picture of one of my scars ( and to be honest...it was only about two inches of the actual offender ). YOU all were instrumental in my acceptance of that, as well!
And I am so blessed to have a partner who does not care if I have boobs or not.
I know many women are not so fortunate.
On a funny note..... I've had 2 c-sections, half my stomach removed - so I have a nice long zipper scar running vertically down my tummy, and the two mastectomy scars, so my mid section looks like this face: :-)
And I don't know how many more body parts I can still safely lose, save for a few teeth and hair. But I'm not going to tempt fate by mentioning THAT, so you didn't hear it from me! Hee.
Thank you all, again! XO
