So its one week and two days to go.... everytime i think about it my tummy does somersaults, i get the runs and i panic.. all natural reactions though eh??
Im still at work (i come off this friday - haveign to build up flexi to take the Monday and Tuesday off though....) but its all i can think about.
Someone kindly on here suggested having a "good bye boobies" night, so im doing this on saturday, bit random, but i think id regret it if didnt do something you know. They have been part of my life for 30 years, and they are part of me. I suppose its like having your leg taken off and replaced by some foreign leg - its not yours.
Lots of thoughts are swimming round my head - am i going to wake up? is something going to go wrong? Am i going to like my new boobs? Am i going to recover ok? Will i be ok psychologically and emotionally???? i didnt take the news very well in feb - took a while to get my head round.
What if i lose the small bit of self esteem that i have???
xx
