Thank you re acceptance
I thank all the comments received so far. My cousin bought prosthesis to wear when she went out with her husband. She found them heavy and made her shoulders ache. Her husband said to wear them for herself not him. They have sat in a box for 9 years with an occasional dust! I did discuss the bra with my husband and his response was adamantly the same. So it is in the drawer. Goes to lifeline next cleanup. Now ladies can anyone please advise where I could buy affordable stylish chamsols. I had two beautiful french ones but they went to lifeline a couple of years ago as I had put on weight. Always wore one under my uniform. I am comfortable with my127Views0likes0CommentsRe: Acceptance
You have to love the honesty of children. I am going to use your saying 'flat and fabulous'. I'm an Oma and made the error perhaps when my grandson asked me how old I was. I said well how old did he think I was. 92! Apparently. Quite chuffed that Nannie is 98! We are both in our 60's. Laughter is the best medicine10Views1like0CommentsAcceptance
3 rounds of surgery over. Very early detection started with conservation surgery in both. Next wider margins. Still not clear in left. I made the decision for bilateral mastectomy and confidently say this was the right decision for me. Supported by my husband and surgeon. No further treatment. Next year for review etc. I made the decision for no reconstruction of any type. No prosthesis. I wish those well meaning folk around would accept this. The bra given sits in a drawer. Yesterday, a friend said "It will make me feel better if I wear it". Thank you for the loving support from my husband and family, I am who I am, comfortable in my own skin and accepting this is how I am now. I do understand those who want reconstruction. My mother was a widow but said it did effect her and how she felt. We are all different. PLEASE do not make my choice and those who feel the same as less a person because we choose to be who we are now in life. I went to a school reunion on the weekend, drains in my shoulder bag and had a fabulous time. One school friend has made the same decision years ago. Still confident also that it was right for her.314Views1like8Comments
