I am on the other side...
$7,000
Wednesday morning, May 4th was my surgery. I am doing well overall. I am more sore and tired today, but I think it is because I was up allot, less pain meds, no more anesthesia on board, and the nerves are connecting again. It is no joke that we have to take it easy. Yesterday I thought I would be up doing things all day today, but I am still in bed. Getting up intermittenly. I am ready for a nap now too.
Surgery went well. I saw my implants and capsules with no visable mold or debris. My doctor did say I bled twice as much as most people because I was so inflammed around the implants and that my body was rejecting them. SO I am SOOOOOOOOOO glad they are OUT! Thank you for those who have checked in on me. I can't wait to start running a few errands and getting back to me. Oh, and taking a shower...today I am not ready for that just yet! Love you all. XOXO

It is time....
This will be my last update before explant! I am flying out tomorrow morning and I have to leave or the airport around 5:15am. Then I arrive and have my pre-op. Surgery the next morning at 7:30 with a 6:30am arrival time. If you are the praying type, please say some prayers for me. I would appreciate any that I can get. I am going to go pack right now...spend the evening with my beautiful kids and be fully present with them. Thank you ALL of you for being there...It has been such an emotional road and I am ready to heal. Love you all. XOXO

Well time flies....less than 7 days!!
At this time next week I will be out of surgery and recovering in my hotel room. SH*T just got real!! Holy crapola! I have been doing pretty well with it overall. I am having the blues off and on...not really about explant, but just about LIFE. Then I got my period today. This was actually a REALLY good thing, because I was afraid I was going to get it while I was away for surgery. And, it helped explain all the tears I have had over the past few days. I woke up and I was like "ohhhhh, now that makes ALLOT of sense!" I am more than ready to go, but...and it is a big but....I hate leaving my kids. I do go on trips every now and then without them, but when I get put under, well that makes me a little nervous. But everyone does it, and everyone does fine...right? (Just say YES!)
I had acupuncture this week, saw my therapist last friday (she is new to me, but she is more like talking to a good friend who doesn't judge you AT ALL). She is BIG into visualization and used it while she healed from cancer and said it helped her heal so much that her doctors were amazed. So I am going to be really focusing on that. I am going to pick a book to read on the plane so I don't go crazy in my head making up 100,000 scenarios. I am really good at that!
I am making a list of questions to ask the doctor since I get 2-3 hours with her the day before surgery. I am grateful for ALL of you who have encouraged me, made me laugh, made me cry (good tears) by knowing you CARE and you get it. We are strong, we are warriors and our scars prove we were stronger than what was inside of us. I am blessed to have you are in my life. Keep sharing, keep smiling, and most of all...keep loving YOU. XOXO Lisa

Aw Lisa, yes you're going to be fine, but I know the feeling...I actually wrote cards n gave them all one before I went under, and told a couple friends to look after my hubby if he lost me lol... So totally normal, but you'll be fine!... They really know what they're doing n I checked how much training they need to be anaesthetists 14 years! ...glad you got your period too! Woohoo!... And stoked you've got onto a good acupuncturist too,I'm hoping to go once I can lay on a table lol... And a chiropractor to make sure I've got no pinched nerves etc.
Great you're making a list of Qs, I did that too...
Oh we are all the luckier ones for having you with us! ;) [RS bleep] We love you! We enjoy your honesty and yes, soon you'll be smiling with us that you're on the other side n free of those dam poison bags! ;) xxxx

You are a bright light in this world. Keep on Shining it because you ring so much joy and laughs to so many! I have thought of picking out pall bearers??!! Wth? Just a thought.
April 27, 2016
Awww big hug, you're going to be fine sweetheart!... But if it's going to help you feel more relaxed, do it!... My theory is Murphy's law is alive lol, if we prepare then nothing will happen! Lol... No don't feel crazy, that's the silicone poison talking making you doubt your beautiful self, tell it where to go ;) It's totally normal and natural to be afraid of going under, but just remember you're not in ANY of the danger zones, not elderly, way overweight etc... And think of all the tiny newborn babies they operate on... How much stronger your body is than theirs luvy!... [RS bleep] I look forward to your excited story about things when you're thru soon and gotcha feet in the sand with us on Explant Island! ;) xxxxxxxxx

My body is healthier then it has been the past 2 years so I think I will rebound pretty well. I eat healthy, drink lots of water and exercise. I can't wait to join us on the island! Ahhhhh. Hugs!!
April 27, 2016
So excited for you, you will do amazingly... I understand how hard it is to leave your kids, it's going to be a challenging time, but will be worth it. :)
May 1, 2016
It's so wonderful on this side...I promise! You are going to be just fine. Anesthesia is no joke but yet, the surgery is really pretty short...you are in great health...and you have a load of people loving you and praying for you. I am so excited for when you are done. You are going to be doin' the chiclets kick all the way to explant island. I almost made myself sick with how nervous I was....as a friend, I promise you can relax.
May 1, 2016
Thank you natural mama!! 3 more days. I fly out Tuesday morning! I am ready!! Can't wait to join you on the other side!! Xoxo.
May 2, 2016
Very good! Why do you have to travel so far? Now I feel like I didn't research Dr.'s enough...haha...any, I'm just curious. Take special care these next two days to relax and enjoy yourself the way you are with your implants. I'm anxiously awaiting to hear how everything goes. xo
May 2, 2016
I wanted to go tomandoctor who does explant via enbloc and gets all the capsules. No one here would do it that way. I am going to a doc who has done over 3,000! Praying this is the right decision! I fly out in 24 hours!! Thank you so much for thinking of me. I'll so so happy when it is over!! I barely slept last night!
May 2, 2016
I wish I could make you not worry and think about it non-stop...but this is the way it goes. After, you will be so relieved and you will see that you did not have to spend so much time worrying.....and you will in turn want to try to convince someone else that they don't have to worry. But, we must all go through the process the way we go through. I will hold your hand from here on out...sometimes it's nice to have someone with you that's been through it. :)
May 2, 2016
Awwww thank you! So encouraging to know I have someone there for me! Thank you so much!! You are amazing!! So reassuring too how well things are going for you!! ❤️

It's bothered me all weekend so I think I need to address it with her again. :(
The other few friends who know, checked in, but haven't heard from them since. It has only been since last Wed and maybe I am just a little emotional now...but still. SIGH!!
