Thank you for your kind thoughts and comments. You were right about swelling not diminishing the size and the dropping and softening. It certainly helped to hear it from someone who'd been there and it was a complete joy when it actually happened to me! What a relief. Things are much better now and are continuing to improve. Thank you for sharing your information with me!
Thank you for your kind words. I am in a much better place now. The last time I cried was when I wrote my review, and then I dug in and found the grit I needed to assess and appreciate not only what I have, but who I am. I think I'm a stronger person now, at least certainly better informed, and I'm thankful for that. Things are much better, brighter. And you were right about smoking: it was just a temporary indulgence for that wild-eyed, frazzled chick that shared my space for a bit. :)
Thank you for your support and kind thoughts. I was certainly feeling like things couldn't get worse, and from there they can only get better. And they did! Lack of information and swelling was my enemy, and I wish I would have known the things I know now, then. Please feel free to discuss this all with your surgeon. That pleases me quite a bit to know I might help someone else. My purpose for writing was selfish; just to mend myself back together. But now I want to educate and help anyone who might be in my position. I'm a big believer in getting back what you put out there, and I already feel repaid by the connections that strangers have made with me. It was a HUMBLING experience, but I wouldn't have known how to be brave and stand up if I hadn't been taken down to where I haven't been before. I have adjusted with new appreciation now. Thanks again.
Thank you! You are right, they were very squarish, and I guess that is common. I wish I had known that before I lost my mind a little bit! Things are looking much better these days.
