Big M Day is finally here!!!
Well guys the big Mastectomy day has come, going in tomorrow for a double whammy, PS will only do implants as DIEP is far too risky for me due to low platelets, but there is also a 50/50 chance I may be getting expanders first. Feeling scared, nervous, so many emotions going through my head at the moment. Have been feeling so low every since chemo finished. I know I will be sobbing like a little baby tomorrow and make a fool of myself but I can't help it, knowing that this is happening right now is actually freaking me out, this was not part of my plan, but is BC part of anyone's plan???? Why? I ask myself that every single day. So many whys at the moment but at the end of the day I realize it is what it is, just get up do what you have to do and get it over and done with.
Till next time xxx

Hi Chris, hope the surgery went well, and that your recovery is uneventful. All that you've been feeling is completely normal.
Take care, Lyn
Hi Chris, I hope your surgery day went well. Mine is all ahead of me! I loved that you talked about sobbing like a little baby when you're in there and it's all happening - that's what's happening to me right now too. I've taken lots of encouragement from your blogging and the responses from the other women about this.
I look forward to hearing how your hospital stay goes, and bilateral mastectomy - at this stage this is on my treatment plan too. Good luck xo
Hi! wishing you all the best with your surgery, take care xx
Thank you Eileen xxxx
I will be thinking of you today Chris with Love & prayers.
I found the mastectomy was not as bad as I thought it was going to be, I think the drains annoyed me more than anything & although mine was the right side only & I did not have expanders in I am sure you will be fine.
Sending Big hugs to you.
