Fabulous Day

Well I've just had the most amazing day. It started with Gordon and I meeting the lovely Mr Butterworth who is the plastic surgeon I was referred to for breast reconstruction. The surgery of choice is the Tram Flap-fantastic. As I mentioned before you achieve reconstruction from removal of fat and skin from your tummy. A tummy tuck!!



Now, like most woman my age I have a bit of a spare tyre but I was delighted to hear from the man himself that I barely have enough fat on my tummy for the planned reconstruction ( find that SO hard to believe!) so on no account have I to lose any weight between now and the op. As I was about to embark on a diet to lose about ten pounds this was music to my ears. Imagine, no guilt at over eating, then a nice surgeon removes all the said fat and gives me two lovely breasts!!



As he shook our hands and said he would be in touch nearer the time, I said I couldn't wait and was looking forward to it. I think he must think I'm a bit odd.

Then I set off to Maggies centre at the Western General in Edinburgh. The young woman's group I go to had been invited to take part in a 'Look Good....Feel Better' class. This is a company that work with woman who have had cancer and what they do is give you a make up lesson and a goodie bag which contains AMAZING products.....dior, chanel, estee lauder.....the list is endless. What a treat!

Needless to say I came home feeling amazing. What a day.
