Getting Ready for a Make-over.....Fear and Panic Setting In - Columbus, OH

Well ladies I have some sort of sad news....I have decided to put my TT & BL on hold and get both my knees replaced first. This was really hard but it's like as soon as I made the appointment for the body work and got the money together, my knees (both of them) said "hold on, what good is a great body if you can't walk and in constant pain....so here is the plan....we are leaving for vacation on Siesta Key Fa. Friday the 10th of May for 2 weeks, and as soon as we return I am scheduling the knees (I doubt if they will do them both at once) soon as I'm through with therapy, probably in the fall I will reschedule with Dr. Heck for the body work........at least I won't be suffering in the middle of the summer with the TT....Ya know my mother and none of my grandparents had bad knees...WTH happened to me???

I know it's a little early to start blogging about it but I am hoping for feedback from ladies who have had this done so that I won't be so afraid when the time comes. I am 65 years old and I have had two breast implant surgeries, first set was silicone 30 yrs ago, one broke, so second set saline, now the right one is broken, it's 21 yrs old so I am not surprised, they only last so long. Plus even though I have not had children my tummy looks like I did. I have scheduled a breast reduction & implant replacement and tummy tuck combination for July 10th. I would have waited until middle of winter but I will probably have to get knee replacement surgery and want to be healed before next summer (ha, sounds like I am falling apart doesn't it) anywho I just want to get it all done and move on. I have heard that a tummy tuck is very painful and you have to walk bent over for at least 2 weeks....hoping to hear from you all. I will post pictures just before I get it done and then during healing and after.
