Almost 7 years since the reduction surgery
WORTH IT
I forgot about this profile until I started receiving email updates again. Technology is weird. It was seven years ago that I was searching for a doctor to perform the surgery. Things have changed a lot since 2013. I bought a house this summer after looking for 1.5 years. I was very picky about a future home for me. I still have Savannah, my only pet. My business is successful and I am very busy. Unfortunately I have lost both my grandmothers since my update in 2017. But I have gained a great niece and great nephew this summer. I am currently saving to buy land in either Wisconsin or upper peninsula of Michigan. The breast reduction surgery is still one of the best decisions I have made in my life. I haven't changed much in my appearance.

I came back to this site for the first time in 2 years. The best friend who helped me during my reduction. Is thinking about a reduction for herself. I am so glad I kept a detailed record before and after the surgery. I have no regrets about the reduction. It was the catalyst to changing my life. My life now is completely different. I have been running my company for 2 years. I still miss my late cat Butterball. I still have my current cat Savannah. I adopted her in April 2013.

Just wanted to say that I am glad that you found another feline friend after losing your Butterball. I just came on this site to look into info for a reduction or at least a lift as I look like I have "big rocks in tube socks" kinda' boobs, but my chances of being approved for anything other than emergency surgery is slim to nil due to my having autoimmune disease. I came across your experience/story & see you'd just posted an update. I am happy because I really felt for you going through so much sorrow right after surgery esp. when you lost Butterball. My home is chock full o' kitties (we're talking double digits!) & a big white German Shepherd "kitty" & a Snowshoe kitty who thinks he's a big dog! They & heck, I'll include my Mr. too, get me through all the chaos life throws at me & get to share in my joys & triumphs too. I'm glad your surgery went well & life seems to have gotten better for you & it's nice that you have Savannah to share in your life. I believe animals are a blessing for us humans, they give us unfaltering companionship, unconditional love (although it's heightened when dishing out food or treats) & support when we need it most. I hope life keeps getting better for you & your kitty-friend.

Two years later and probably goodbye
I cannot believe two years have gone by since the surgery. So much has changed since that time. I have started my own business and have a few good projects ready to start in March. My current cat Savannah has been a great companion and silly chunky monkey. I got Savannah one month after Butterball died in March 2013. I got to know Savannah through a cat rescue where I volunteer. I will have enough money saved to buy a house before the end of this year. I found a good office location and approximate area where I am house hunting. Looking back I have no regrets with my breast reduction surgery. I have told other women about the great results. My life is far better than it was 2 years ago. I truly believe that having the surgery released me from inhibitions. I wish other women getting the surgery well wishes and healthy healing. This is my goodbye, at least I'm pretty sure it is. :)
