Hi, I can understand some of your frustration, i am sitting here in hospital, unable to sleep and in intense pain (i just had a bilateral mastectomy and the begining of reconstruction two days ago), I am hoping i like the 'new normal' when this speed bump is over so that it can somehow justify that the pain was truely worth it. We cannot control what life is throwing at us, everyone's journey is unique, but try (even though it is almost impossible at times) to look on the brighter side of things, you have your life, there are people worse off than us. Yes it will take a bit of getting used to the new you, yes the next operation will more than likely hurt (i have been told it is not as bad as the first), i am looking at things in a whole new perspective now and i will embrace life even more so than i did before, Of coarse I will miss the old normal, but I take each day as it comes and even though it is morbid at times I try to see a positive or funny side in almost everything (this helps to keep me sane), and hell not many people get the chance to choose what they want their nipples to look like.............i am still tossing up between stars or butterflies ;) Hold your head up high and be proud of you, besides who sets the guidelines up on what is or is not normal? Take care
