Going well.

Ok. All is going well. she had the lumperotomy or whatever and now she's got a black eye on her...not on her eye anyway. She hurt a few days and next Tuesday we hear back form the doc who will give us the results from the pathologist. If the rest of the mass is clear then she starts radiation treatment. If they find something else in the mass outside of the spot that they were already looking at then they will do a mastectomy. It's not just lopping one off anymore. They'll do reconstructive surgery to build the one they cut off back up to size and reduce the other one to match. So she gets a free boob job in the process.

Can you see we're really working here to keep a good attitude?

She wonders if they can make them perky again.

I know several women who have had voluntary or involuntary breast surgery. They can do amazing things with tattoos too! The important part is being well - and positive attitude sure helps!
I am sending you & Sheila love!

Tattoos? Can they fix the one that says "Rocky"?

Perky is way over rated.

My neighbor turned down the tattoo on her reconstructed side, I suggested she gets the tattoo and adds a tassel.
