I celebrated my four-week anniversary post-surgery by sharing my "close friends and family only" blog to Facebook in hopes that I could be a voice of encouragement to others who may be experiencing a similar situation. The response has been overwhelmingly positive, encouraging, and loving, and I'm so very grateful to everyone taking the time out of their lives to read and share my story. You are the people who add the fuel to my fire! I've heard from a few ladies that it has motivated them to schedule an appointment they have been putting off, and hearing that makes me confident that I did the right thing by sharing my experience. If even one person is able to catch something before it's a scary something, I'm doing my job! It's never too early to get tested, and I'm not just talking about breast cancer either. There's no room in life for hesitation when it comes to your health!
On a completely separate note, I just got home from having my second expansion. Like I mentioned after last week's painful experience with 50cc's, I only did 25cc's on each side this time. I have to say, they're coming along quite nicely! My preliminary assessment says that the right one is finally catching up
to the left in terms of shape (it's been a little flatter) and my guess
is that to any random, unknowing person, they wouldn't give me a second
glance! They're feeling a little tight but we'll have to wait a few hours until the pain (if it's coming) will really kick in. That should be perfect since I have dinner plans with a few girlfriends at 7 (sarcasm font). I'll let you know how it turns out a little later!
