Third surgery

Hi ladies. Recovery time now. Surgery last week for right mastectomy. Feeling relieved it's all done and dusted. Unsure some times about my feelings  but looking forward to forgetting all this surgery talk for now and getting on with being able to get back to some kind of normality. Bit tense today for that phone call a week after surgery for results but all good and no nasty surprises. Have to learn how to relax again after these last few months. WAnt the days to go quicker so I can get on top of feeling better but enjoying my walk in the sunshine for now. thankful for little things and realizing yes this whole experience does change us forever but hope the uncomfortable bits become a distant memory. Time for a great holiday when my energy levels return. I know the drill by now of taking one step at a time.????

    Thanks Tracy. To be at peace sounds lovely. It's no good looking back. Just thankfully  my life is now back on track. Don't have any regrets about losing my breast as long as I am healthy. recovery bring it on. Best wishes to you also. Xx

    Glad you came through the op without any hassles..so glad the results are good too, that alone is a big relief!.....take a deep breath and get on with recovery.....as for your feelings that takes time too...

    I was at total peace with the fact that both of my breasts were removed and once I had a good look after my surgery it sealed that...it made it a bit easier to cope with the rest.....

    Onwards and upwards!

    Wishing you all the best!
