Five days to go until I farewell my breasts. I am comfortable with my decision but nervous about the emotional impact of the outcome. How can you anticipate an amputation of this nature, physically...
Going under for surgery is scary. I joked that they keep the balcony doors locked at St Andrew's Hospital so the pre-surgery patients can't escape while they're waiting. It's certainly how I felt. But they gave me something for anxiety prior to the surgery and the surgeon held my hand while the anaesthetist did his thing and I woke up again on the other side. I'm glad that you and your husband had such a good night @kmakm
