I'm home and doing ok. Lots of swelling already and I look like a fat ninja. My face is wrapped up so tight. He took out 4500 cc with the lipo. I am sore but ok. Willow is taking great care of me! I'll post more when I can see better. Thanks for the well wishes and thinking of me. Hugs, Lucy

Hi Lisa. I wanted to post earlier but was very uncomfortable. And Willow was so busy taking care of me I didn't have the heart to ask her to post. She is getting some much needed rest now. Lucy
