His orders were to not shower for another 2 weeks... I can take a bath though but keep the breasts dry - and after 5 weeks go BRA shopping! :) whoo hoo!!! He even was quite knowledgeable about which stores were the best to go to - He had great things to say about JC Penny's and Dillard's ;)
Taken after coming out of my appointment. See the new me! :)
Thanks everyone for your prayers! I actually received lots of prayers and emails too from the St Francis ACTS group off list and it gave me a lot of peace knowing that a lot of them had gone through or knew someone who did and knew what I was getting ready to go through.
My dad and step mom have been here just over a week – and are leaving tomorrow morning (Fri) to go back to KY. They are very anxious to return home, as this is the longest they’ve ever been gone. I’d love for them to stay through the weekend and enjoy our Mardi Gras festivities…
Also prayers for my parents driving back to KY would be appreciated…I’m a little nervous about them driving on Friday the 13th Last year when they drove back tornado followed them through each town it seamed… thankfully they were able to stay ahead of the storm the whole way and made it back safe.
… and I’m still not ready for *Hugs* or lifting or holding my twins during mass… but I am doing great.
Love from Texas!

Oh Bonnie, congrats on being a new person. I remember my Grandma feeling the same. She was so proud to show off her new person.
ReplyDeleteI hope all continues to go well.

You look fantastic; what a smile you have! I'm glad everything went off without a hitch. For bra-shopping - Nordstrom's does a great fitting service. A little spendy, but worth it.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations Bonnie! I know you are going to fall in love with your new girlfriends and already you can see the joy they bring you! Just think of all the new clothes you can buy - Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, Bonnie!
ReplyDeleteYour smile tells it all!
Continue healing and have fun shopping!

Bonnie! You look awesome! I know you must be so relieved to have this over. My oldest may have to do this same thing one day. Since she turned 20, she has blossomed more and more each year and now she is 27.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to meet you in April! Wish I could come with a new body (much slimmer) but one day maybe.. :-)
You need to put me back on your sidebar under my new blog name. :-)
I am so pleased everything went well! You are just beautiful!
