Hi,

I am doing good....I am in the middle of the tissue expansion....The plastocs doc says we are on track for the implants in July. I go every 2 weeks now for fills, I was going every week there for a while.

I am going to do the Race For the Cure walk May 22nd. I am a little concerned, I have not let this get me down or affect me on the outside fo ranyone to see. I knoew I had to stay strong for those around me and now I am afraid it might hit me at the walk....I think this might be my time to let the tears flow...I haven't done that yet....

I'll let you know how it goes....

Tell your friend she is in my prayers because  I know first hand how they work....

hahaha, obviously I hadn't read the post below my last post....

I'm so jealous that your getting implants....your going to be perky for life!  I wish I could have implants, but alas I'm flatter than my hubby.... oh well I guess it could be worse.

I'm going down for the 'race', I've gone almost every year since my dx (I missed the 1st year because I was in the beginning phase of chemo and was avoiding crowds).  Be warned it is a VERY emotional event for us survivors, especially the first one (actually all cancer walks are).  As survivors we walk thorough our daily lives trying to forget the fight the best we can, because we don't want to dwell or bring bad 'karma' on ourselves, however when you are surrounded by people who have faced what we have faced and by those that love and support us, it is very emotional. 

My friends and family know that I get a bit weepy at those events and they let me and hug me more....try to enjoy the celebration of your life.  

BTW, my friends and I go to lunch at Hard Rock after wards if you'd like to join us let me know, I'd love to meet you.
