Just a quick post to check in and let everyone know how I am doing. Not that this is surprising but I am actually doing better than expected! Prayer does amazing things :) First day was pretty rough, but it didn't take me long to get my determination back. Facing up to five days in the hospital will get you up and moving real quick. I hate sitting still and being confined. Working hard paid off, I only had to stay three nights. Got to come home just in time to celebrate my 34th birthday! Yes, I told my age! I feel extremely lucky to celebrate every birthday from here on out, a year older means another year I survived! Tomorrow is back to Chapel Hill for my follow-up. Praying that my four drains can come out! Once the drains come out I will be able to drive and will be able to get around so much easier! So excited for the next few months to see how this part of my reconstruction is going to go. A little challenging none the less, as right now I am fairly flat chested (and let's face it ~ I have never really had that problem!), and over the course of the next few months I will slowly be expanded. Beach and pool days will be spent in tanks and not in bathing suits but I just keep reminding myself that after this summer I will be able to rock a swimsuit! Once the doctor releasing me I guess I will need to start working on the rest of my out of shape body!
Thank you to everyone who has been keeping me in their prayers! Fingers crossed that drains come out tomorrow! God Bless, Angie
