My friends who had reconstruction had all but one the operation that is a tummy tuck and new boob in one at the time of their mastectomy, the other at another hospital had the one using back muscle later. I was actually a bit put out by Dr geek seemingly saying bad news is it is Cancer, good news is you will wake up with a new and better boob and a tummy tuck when I was still very much struggling with the bad news. He has changed his approach now, I think the hospital of geeks just got a bit carried away because they had pioneered the operation. It is a huge operation,11 hours, but everyone I know is really pleased with the result, none had hnds problems, she was so unlucky, actually they are probably most pleased with the tummy tuck since it is nice to get rid of the damage done by children and gravity however I think that having a gap between mx and reconstruction probably makes the choices more complex?
I would add Betsy that Dr Geek though a bit put out at the time, and clearly thought I was a weirdo, now says that he thinks I made the right decision, if flatness doesn't bother you psychologically it really is better to leave well alone, it can't be a bad thing to avoid further surgery and problems down the line. I get a bit fed up of people expecting you to have had reconstruction without realising it isn't an easy option. I was in any case a gym bunny and preferred my core muscles to stay put though that doesn't apply anymore
mas Russell brand had a lovely chant in his desert island discs, did you hear it, it will be on the R4 iplayer. I meant to look into it more on my long list of things I won't get round to
marshy and smee afraid to report that between about a day after they start Year 7 and around 16 when they realise the "cool" police are not worth bothering about you are on to a loser on the coat front, they will hide it in their bag/locker even if you threaten grounding if they don't take it and risk dying of hypothermia in the gutter by the bus stop. Teenagers are stupid.
handbags hope you get rid of your accessory, yes they are revolting but then mine came out early and I had to have a grumpy doctor with a very big syringe drain it so it is probably the lesser of two evils......
ruby yeah for run. I used to be able to cope with anything with a good run. When my ex went off with Miss America my flatmates commented that others would have taken to the bottle but I took to the road, there were some incidents that took 7 miles to sort out in my head .....
