I am 49 years old and finally taking care of me! C-sections and numerous other tummy surgeries have left me with lots of extra! I am having a mommy makeover that will be a tummy tuck, breast reduction, breast lift, liposuction of flanks and liposuction of sides next to my breast! I can't wait bt I am nervous, anxious and all those mixed emotions we all seem to be!

This week has been really busy with getting things checked off my list for the surgery. My PS wanted a medical release from my primary doctor for the surgery - so I had that done. They took blood and urine samples and an EKG. PS also wanted an updated mammogram - so did that this afternoon too. My husband came home for the weekend. He is presently working out of town. We talked for quite a while about the surgery and after care. He won't be home during my surgery. He won't be coming home until the week after my surgery. My best friend and my mother are going to be taking care of me after surgery. Getting more excited.
