    Hey girl. Good to hear from you. Hoping you heal quickly. Yes, I thought the reduction was pretty easy. I can imagine this surgery was much more difficult. Take it easy and stay in as I’m sure your immune system isn’t as strong right now. We just got out on stay at home so that is easy to do now.

    I hope and pray you are doing well AB 💜

    Here's a cute puppy picture to cheer you up. This is one of our little pack, 11 month old WINTERFELL. An Osprey had flown by and dropped a fish in our yard and Winterfell paraded around the yard proudly with it ☺️

    AB-good to see your post. Fingers crossed that you will not require chemo! What was the actual diagnosis this go round? I totally agree about staying out of a hospital right now! Rest and stay safe

    AB- it took 8 months for me between DMX and TEs because they felt my skin at the time was too thin. It was not my favorite time in life that’s for sure. But I now have had implants for 2 years. And Vinnie Meyers tattoos since last June.

    If I learn how to make this page a favorite , it’ll be easier for me to find it. I’ll be able to check in with you more often.

    Miss you girl! You are a strong woman. Take it easy for a long while. You will heal up nice .

    Vargadoll, I just ordered a t shirt that says the same Bible verse you have at the top. Proverbs 31:25❤️✝️

    I also got one that says “Be Still”

    This is how I fight my battles

    And

    My weapon is a melody🎵

    thanks 3 bears - you have been through a lot!!

    i go for exchange next thursday. ill be small. curious the final look bc the expanders look deformed and i have a wonky boob looking over to the side - i dont know if that can be fixed or not. gah. im 8 wks out from dmx and was starting to feel good and hike and move around, and now to go back to the recovery bed is sad. 2 more months of recovery - ugh. but at least im not missing out on anything fun bc evryone is in quarantine, lol!!! thanks for checking in - sending lots of love.

    Hi girls, due to loosing Fightingirl , I just came on here to read our old posts. I read all of our posts right around our surgeries, leading up to and right after. I still remember you all so well as your online names. Plus I wanted to give a shout out to AB since she's not on our FB page.

    You all are just really still SO important to me. You made me so much stronger and less afraid at the very worst time of my life. I'm so glad we are mostly all together still . You are all wonderful women.
