Road to recovery~

It is so hard to take it easy....even when you know it is doctor's orders and in your own best interest. There is always so much that needs to be done and I have never been one to sit around and wait for someone to help me....just ask my husband. LOL He of course has been an extremely big help through this whole process, but I still want to get back to speed and I know it will take a lot of time to get there. I am so happy right now that I feel so good and so relieved that the cancer is gone. Now I am just going to have to take it a day at a time and try to slow down so I won't suffer any set backs. All is going better than I could have ever expected and I know it is from all the thoughts and prayers from everyone.



2 weeks after surgery~CHRISTMAS EVE

I ended up losing a total of about 13 pounds which is not a bad thing, but my goal is to turn some of my flab into some muscle and get stronger each day forward. I will go back in for another surgery hopefully in late spring for permanent implants. Mixed emotions about that as I do not look forward to another surgery, but I look forward to getting rid of the expanders. I have been through the worse, so I know I can handle anything from this point forward!
