Wow Arpie, some of those tatoo's looked good on the women's chests! however don't think I'd go that way.
I feel it may take a while to get used to looking at myself boobless.
But I'd rather that than going through what the plastic surgeon explained to me, if I was fatter it'd be easier, but the weight's just dropped off me in the last 6 months. I'm too skinny.
At yesterday's appointment I asked my surgeon if I'd be having more lymph nodes removed and he said "I don't see why" !! I hope there's no cancer in remaining ones though, so I said to him to "scrape as much out as he can on my chest" and he almost cracked a smile (but not quite) saying "Hmmmm not sure that'd be appropriate, we don't "scrape" ! " he's very hard to drag anything info out of.
I am quite upset now, as this morning I got a call from my surgeon's secretary early this morning telling me he's sick and having covid testing so my op tomorrow's cancelled :s
But I wouldn't want him operating while he's not 100%.
So another week's wait......
