Never happier!! New pic!

I have searched high and low for a site like this for months and wouldn't you know it a mere 2 days before surgery I find it!
I have considered it all my adult life. I woke when I was 12-13 and had c cup's one morning. By 18 they were d cups, since I have had 2 kids they have changed shape and sag a lot plus the left breast has always been pretty much a cup size bigger than the right.
Fast forward to being 33 and being in a near fatal motorcycle wreck and breaking my neck & back as well as numerous other fractures plus a 100lb weight gain and they are now over flowing F's.
I am hopeful that by having them reduced, lifted and evened up that I can help alleviate some of the neck & back pain.
I have been contemplating it for these reasons since last summer. I spoke with a friend last summer who had it done and HIGHLY recommended her surgeon. That is what spurred me on. I started researching and decided that it was for me. Then I would decide nah let's wait. Then this Spring I decided I should really look into it as maybe I would not even be eligible to get it covered. I emailed said Dr and he told me to book a consult. That was in June and he could not do consult till Oct 4th. I asked if there was any cancellation list etc he said no but he had a new female surgeon coming to join him in September and she is highly skilled with extra training at Harvard, he also told me that after the consult with him the surgery would still be 6-9 month wait. I opted to go see her on Sept 27 and she wanted to book me for surgery on Oct 19!!! I had to say no as I had accident related appointments to attend, so she said Oct 26th again I had to decline for the same reasons and hence I go Nov 2 @0800!!
My husband is LESS than thrilled, he thinks they are beautiful and I should leave my body alone. I try to get him to look at the pictures but he is dead set against me having it. I know he will be helpful and understand once it is done and I am healed I have not gone into details about the potential loss of nipple etc, cause he would blow a gasket!!
I am very excited for it to happen, scared about the amount if pain but at the same time it cannot rival what I went through in the accident.
Being a RN I am crazy worried about the risk of infection and or potential nipple loss. I am slightly concerned about scarring but ultimately the benefit of them being smaller, less heavy is way worth it. Furthermore being able to buy a button up shirt that fits ALL parts of me not one that is huge to fit the girls so I don't pop a button!!
A bit about me: I am 36, mother of a 15yo daughter...
I was in a motorcycle wreck in Sept 2010 and am not back to work as yet.
I broke my neck at C1, tore the ligaments from C2-C6, broke my back at L5, shattered my pelvis, broke both hips and my left acetabulum. I tore my mesenteric artery and had a mesh repair of my left flank (scar on my belly in the pic) I have a small brain injury as well. I have gained weight which I have been told is due to the injuries, brain injury and of course immobility.
I am hoping that I get some pain relief as well as some increased excercise tolerance.
My breasts are so heavy!!

Well here it is a few hourse before I am NPO and...
I got my supplies today..dressing stuff, 2prs button up pj's, new toiletries as a treat for my overnight in the hospital.
I am so excited I am feeling slightly anxious!
I have always loved my girls till the last 1.5yrs when they just became TOO big! They also use to be perky and well now I could use them as brooms! I tell myself being able to go braless without worrying about pinching a nipple I will be thrilled.
I am nervous my husband will not like the results but then again this is for ME not him!
I just can't wait to be on the other side!
