Still in hospital

Well, I am still here! There is still too much fluid so I cant go home until the drain comes out. 6 days already and I can not wait until I can go home and chill out on my own couch, sleep in my own bed, drink my own coffee!!!! My Plastic Surgeon should be here soon. So fingers crossed the drain can come out.

On a happier note. I got a call from my Breast Surgeon on Thursday. I AM CANCER FREE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Whoo Hoo......I didnt realise just how much I wanted to hear those words. Having my other breast off was definately the right decision for me. (I had another Mastectompy and reconstruction on Monday) There is no more fear and wonder. I will never have breast cancer again!! One of my girlfriends came into hospital last night with a bottle of Champagne and nibbles to celebrate!!!

I am fairly flat chested at the moment. My Plastic Surgeon said she wont start filling the expanders for 3 weeks, (I am guessing that is from the day she put them in). I can see the light at the end of the tunnel now.

What a year this has been for me, my family and friends.

I hope you are all doing well, what ever stage you are going through at the moment.
