Yesterday was a big day Tim and I started our day at the plastic reconstructive surgeons office, Dr. Susan Maclennan. Susan will be working together with Dr. Michelle Sowden during my surgery. Dr. MacLennnan will place a temporary implant that can be filled gradually over the course of three months while I heal. Once I'm healed I will have another surgery to take the temporary implant out, at that time they will also take my right implant and replace both empty pockets with silicone gel implants. After I heal from that I will get my nipple tattoo. Yesterday was a good day I'm just anxious for a surgery date.
Today I had the biopsy on my right breast preformed by Dr. Oppenheimer (spelling?) he was very kind again it was painless just a lot of pressure. Nothing ruptured so that was a plus.
The genetic doctor called and finally some good news it came back negative.
Tim and I meet with Dr. Sowden Friday to go over the results of today's biopsy and hopefully tomorrow I will have a set date for surgery.
CONSTANT FORWARD MOTION!
