Hi everyone!
Well just an update on what is going on.....Well I have surgery scheduled again on the 25th...it will be in the afternoon..and I will go home after..so not so crazy as last time. (Oh I thought this picture says it all....how funny is that?)
I spent a good amount of time at the Plastic Surgeons office yesterday deciding on what I want to do...Silacone or Saline...and ugh..we both decided to actually order both and he would decide when we are actually in surgery.
It is amazing how these implants are made...and the diameter and the projection and all of these specifics...I was very intrigued, and me with the thousand questions...I had to understand everything...
So I would rather have silacone which only goes up to 800ml...and saline can go to 950ml...so I am not sure what he will implant..I said again I would rather have the silacone..and now he is going to do some surgery on the other boobie as well..so instead of him leaving it alone...he wants to do something to that one as well...ugh!
Ok..so I trust him and then when I wake up I will be perfect! The surgery was scheduled on that Tuesday of that same week..but then he moved it to Friday, then he realized that he would be out of town right after that...so he moved it to the Monday of the same week...So he can see me the next day...
So important I walk...and I will be getting an injection of Lovenox before and after surgery and two times a day for 10 days after...no blood clots for me...
I let my family know yesterday when the surgery was...and so that would be on a Monday and Saturday Rob and the kids minus Amanda are going to California...she will stay home with me, and hang out..and by then I should be good anyway!
So Sean is in town from Atlanta...and we are going to dinner tonight with Rachele. Amanda will be at the gym training...and Berto..with his Dad...but with Dad and Mom and my cousins in from New Jersey so a mini family reunion! We are going to the Rio Hotel...they have a nice dinner place there so it will be fun!
Going to my oncologist Dr. Manno before that at around 4:30 or so..have to start a new medicine actually for neropathy...side effect of the surgery..it will help with the pain I have been having in my arm. It's because they removed lymphnodes so then I guess that it could cause problems with the nerves...and the lymph system. So I will know later, and he is such a good doctor..he called me during my late lunch with my family and I have an appointment with him on Friday morning, but he wants me to come into his office today end of day so we can talk and he isn't so distracted with other patients. So Rachele and I will go there first then to the dinner!
Well that is all actually, and I want to thank everyone as usual for all of your love and support and being so there for me...you so know how much I appreciate you all!
Ok..enough for now...
Love..
