In a couple of more sleeps, I will take the long journey from the Southern Hemisphere (Sydney, Australia) to the northern hemisphere (Houston, USA). I have chosen Dr Horndeski for his new procedure, hoping and praying to minimize my scaring and relieve my neck pain. My journey only started around the age of forty - up until then, I was a comfortable 30C after five pregnancies. For some unknown reason, around the age of forty, I gained 5kg; which mostly went to my boobs (I am suspecting menopause). I now have difficulty buying bras or swimmers as my frame is disproportionate to my breasts. I also began having neck pain and shortly after was diagnosed with vertebrae issues in my upper neck, associated with large breasts. I now live on pain killers and I am restricted with clothing choices, sports and many things I just took for granted - like sleeping through the night without waking with neck pain. After almost four years, my husband and I decided to find a solution. Well, here I am.
I reviewed Dr horndeski's method and thought that this procedure had some benefits, mostly neck pain relief and minimal scaring (as like any woman, I want to remain sexy and feel attractive. I want to wear swimmers and feel proud). So, I am chancing leaving my home country and traveling 22 hours in a plane, with no insurance (as travel insurance won't cover me, as I am having a medical procedure), paying three and a half times the cost it would of been (including flights, accomadation etc), if I had chosen the regular mastopexy in Australia. I am nervous yet excited. Up until this point, I have had a Skype meeting with Dr Horndeski and have had several email communications with his staff. They have been very professional and are experienced with international patients. I have reviewed several of his patients on this site and tried to educate myself as much as possible - thank you real self. I could not have even contemplated doing this without the support of the most wonderful husband, who will be beside, every step of the way. I am looking forward to my consultation with the Doctor, the afternoon before the day of the procedure. Following my consultation, i will be off to get some specified bras, as I am unable to purchase them in my home town. The office lady Shilo, said, she would assist with directions. Then off to bed early, for surgery the following day.

I arrived in Houston late last night after 31 hours of travel, from my home to the hotel. The hotel is lovely with a little kitchen and a small lounge. I guess I better like it, seeing I will be spending a lot of time here in the next week. My husband and I brought some scented candles today to help me feel at home. We also picked up necesetties like food and water to get us through the next couple of days without leaving the room. Tomorrow is my first meeting with Dr Horndeski, apart from our Skype consultation. My appointment is in the afternoon and straight after that I will need to locate a shop to purchase the bra type he has specified. A little difficult with such little time, no transport and in a foreign country. But, I will need them for the following days surgery. I have noticed I am starting to feel nervous and a little snappy with my husband, I keep assuring myself - this will pass soon. It's like when your pregnant with your first child, you have educated and know what to expect, but you never really fully understand the experience untill the other side. You pray our creator will treat you kindly and your journey will not have any unexpected twists and turns. You try to cross all your T's and dot all of your I's. Now I have to rest and wait.

Best wishes coming your way, 30G! Looking forward to your posts.

Were you able to find a bra? I hope his office staff helped you locate a store since you're not from here.

I have my appointment in a few hours. I expressed the difficultly in purchasing this size and I hope the office lady clearly understands this. I was at Maseys yesterday and they did not stock my size, so I really do hope Shilo is true to her word and I have no problem buying a bra this afternoon.

Good luck tomorrow! Sending well wishes your way

The night before

Today I meet with Dr Horndeski and his staff members. All went well and he was very professional. His staff were also equally as professional and I left his office with a prescription for necessary medication and information for tomorrow's surgery. The doctor went over the procedure throughly and was happy to answer any question I had. After the consultation, I went straight to the mall to purchase the required bras, after picking up my prescription. But unfortunately they did not have many choices for my size (currently a 30G going to 30D) I was left with two bras to chose from and they were not quite the type I required (not hire enough in the mid chest area). The width being a 30 apparently is not common with a larger cup size. Neither the less, I need a bra for tomorrow, so I purchased two of them and hopefully the office staff at the doctors surgery can give my husband some direction as to where to find my size. Not even Victoria.s secret, can you believe that. No food past midnight tonight, so we headed to The Chessecake Factory for my last meal. Tonight will be my last night with these boobies and tomorrow I hope a new journey begins with more freedom and less pain. I feel like - if only I had a fast forward button, so I would be healed and heading back to Australia, as I miss my children and my newly born grandson of only three weeks. But, I know, I will grow from this lesson and I will be forever grateful to the surgeon for giving me a second chance. Bless you all on the same journey and a many thanks to all that have gone before me, for you helped give me the courage I needed.

Your rib cage is very tiny! I bet it was hard to find a bra to fit you. :( I'm wondering if you could find one online? And have it shipped to you? I think there is a Nordstrom in the mall near you. Here is the link to their website: http://m.shop.nordstrom.com/th/womens-30g-bra , maybe the hubs can swing by the store and pick one up? Here's another website: http://m.herroom.com/30g,bras,30g,001,14.html ... Hopefully they have speedy shipping. And her is Amazons website: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B001UNAT20/ref=cm_cr_mpr_bdcrb_top?ie=UTF8&th=1&psc=1 , see if any of them have fast shipping. Rest up and let us know how you're doing when you feel awake enough. Sending prayers & good energy to you for tomorrow's surgery :)
