Bev
i'm glad you're healing, but why why'd you do it?
June 28th, 2011  
@prttblues - Thanks Bev. I'm slowly healing although I have the flu now which isn't helping. I got it done because my top eyelids were touching my top eyelashes and I hated them. The surgeon said I need a brow lift to eradicate the problem completely but no thank you.
June 29th, 2011  
Glad you're feeling a wee bit better :-)
June 29th, 2011  
Ouch, I hope the bruises resolve fast and the flu does, too!
June 29th, 2011  
@touzel @netkonnexion - thank you
June 29th, 2011  
@sam_cr @seattle - thanks ladies. I've wanted to do this for many years, getting the money together and the courage to do it took years also.

@keithdavid - thanks Keith

@kchuk - thank you Elyse

Well they do say it gets worse before it gets better... the bruising is well & truly out, but emerging will be a pretty butterfly again. Take care and it will be worth it! ;-)
June 29th, 2011  
Holy shmoly that looks painful. So glad to read you weren't hurt or attacked! Really scared me for a bit. Hope you heal quickly Kathy, and you go girl!
June 29th, 2011

You're not going to work like that, are you? Days off, yeah?
June 30th, 2011  
@brizmako - I took 3 weeks off - still got 10 days left. Hopefully all signs will be gone before I go back!
June 30th, 2011  
Thinking about you....

thanks for the support today :-)
