Thanks for the Mammaries.
Well here I am on the final countdown to my double mastectomy. Six more sleeps and the girls are gone. My first remembered awareness of my boobs changing, was me being a bridesmaid for an older cousin...

I was amazed at the weight of mine! And I only lost one. For a parcel of reasons I did not get a proper prosthesis for 12 months. Why was I surprised at a bit of backache? I had wished for big breasts when I was a flat chested 13 year old, be careful what you wish for! Due to fluid, my post mastectomy breast site was pleasantly rounded (my mutant breast as my lymphoedema therapist called it) but it wasn't really a shock. Not appealing after the first fluid aspiration though, all flat and wrinkly! I didn't feel bad about my breast, cancer just happens, it wasn't some bodily betrayal but I also don't miss it. I'd have missed a hand or a foot much more.
