Day 5 after bilateral mastectomy

Today was another good day. Woke up feeling fresh and was positive about the day. Spent the day with a few visitors and reading some mindless trash. Every visitor that came in I made them do a lap of the ward with me. I had my dressings changed today and had the chance to see my breasts. I was very nervous and only looked down at them not front on in the mirror but I was really happy with what I saw. They look different but they look fine. When I looked down I couldn't see any scars which is great and will still be able to wear low cut tops once the swelling has gone down. They feel odd as in numb but my breast care nurse said the feeling comes back very slowly. They'll never feel the same but they'll definitely have more feeling than they do now. I think at this point I've either been blessed with a great first few days except 1 or I think I underestimate how much my pre op fitness has helped.
