Woo-hoo! Done! Done! Done! Well, at least for now. I finished my last fill on Tuesday and I am done for the summer! Yippeeeee! I went in last Tuesday and my PS asked if I thought I was happy with the size of my expanders. I told him I am and he gave me my final fill. He said I could have my replacement surgery as early as a month from now, but I told him I'm taking the summer off and will wait a while for my next, and hopefully final, surgery. I need the summer off from the hospital and the focus on my foobs (that's fake+boobs= foobs for the unitiated).
So what's next? Well, I will continue to work over the summer. Take a few small vacations here and there, and will probably schedule the replacement surgery in the fall. They will take out the expanders and put in my silicone gel implants at that time. I won't be able to use my arms for a week and I'll have those horrible drains again, so I decided to give myself a break and wait a while.
I'm going to try to keep up with yoga over the summer. I was under a dark cloud last week and didn't go to any classes, but I'm going to try to go tomorrow. I went to the library and got some post-cancer reading materials of the "now what do I do?" and "help, my brain is permanently damaged by chemo, what do I do?" variety. I hope they have some insight. I could use some emotional assistance.
Hope everyone is having a great summer and enjoying life. I'm making art again, so things are looking up. Will post some of my stuff sometime soon.
