Day 12: Size and Shape

I am now good with my size. I am definitely not too small. Here is a picture of me in a 32D bra. I think it works. My only worry now is my left breast. If Gumby and Frankenstein hadn't a baby, it would look like my left boob. Itvisxa hit square with the outer edge being much more pronounced. This was the breast that was originally larger and received a reduction, so I suppose more trauma equals more swelling. Plus, as my awesome surgical nurse said, "they are sisters, not twins, they will heal at different rates and will have their own journeys." I am paraphrasing on the journey part. ????. I hope she is right!!! My two week appointment is in 3 days, so we will see.

Phew! Thanks, for hanging with me through that downward emotional plummet! So glad I was prepared for that by reading so many other posts on Real Self! While I still hurt (with night time being the absolute worst) and I am still quite swollen, I have no regret about about size. I put a bikini top on (just to see) and I was pleasantly surprised that I am happy with my size! Here iare pictures. I will post more as the healing progresses.

Dr. James French is great. After having met with and interviewed eight doctors, I knew right away that Dr. French was "the one". Aside from his stellar credentials and his comforting bed side manner, there is something about Dr. French that makes you feel confident that you are great hands. With each interaction i have with Dr. French and his staff, It is confirmed that I made the right decision. Dr. French's staff is just as fantastic. Laura, Erin and Sherri care so much about how their patients feel. They take the time to listen and to understand. They are supportive and honest. They are very patient and kind. They are knowledgable and responsive. They make you feel good by just being with you. Starting with Dr. French, to his coordinator, to his nurses, to his front desk staff, I feel like they all know me and that I am a part of their family. I will expand upon my review at the completion of my experience, but so far, I can't imagine a better team for me!
