Emotions

It has only been a few days since Bill left....and its definitely an emotional roller coaster.  I have only teared up a couple times so far, which is good for me!!  Kadynce has been saying that she misses her Daddy a lot and will see him in a long time.  She marks off the days on the calendar everyday...once day closer!!  Bradyn....well, he's having a rough time.  He has cried every day so far because he wants his Dad.  He knows that it is going to be a long time before he sees his Daddy again but he just wants him home.  Its rough on my emotions seeing them get sad.  I just have to take a deep breath and calm us all down.  

Not having my other half in the house.....is weird!  Its quiet.  Its NOT normal!  I hate the silence of him not being home.  

Overall it has been good.  I thought that the first week or so was going to be the worst...if this is, then the rest of the time should be a breeze!!

Finally...the "sisters" are together again

Im so happy!  I had surgery a couple weeks ago to put my right implant back in.  Surgery went well other than my breathing machine kept going off and all of the Nurses kept running over to my bed and telling me to breathe.  I got settled in to bed at home and had 2 caretakers since Lauren was here visiting.  The first couple of days were just a little rough.  I had a drain tube in so it was a big pain in the ass to work around and deal with.  At my first post op appt everything looked great.  We kept the drain in for another week just to make sure it was ready to come out.  We are doing EVERYTHING that we can to NOT have any complications this time!  I go back this next week to have all of the stitches out.  They did scar revision on the left breast and also an internal bra on that side.  They put the implant back in on the right and did a little scar revision.  Im still really swollen on the right side but I am in love with them!!!!  My "sisters" are looking great and can only get better from here!  :) 


Here are a couple pictures from a few days ago.  First one is of me in a bra that I wore before surgery.  The second is just a normal pic (the tape is where the drain tube was).  The third is of the scar revision on the left breast.  The fourth is the incision where the implant was put back in and from scar revision.
