hi

Hi all, still  har dto type. LOL
cant believe arlene has already had a mani pedi
i cant even stand up straight yet, cannot get a shower and my cats
have informed me that i stink.

went back to Poconos today my sis took me
he pulled 1 drain was hoping for 2
says that it is healing nicely
he is happy with the results
for me all it looks like now is frankenstein porn down there
oh well.
I am just glad i can finally sleep better

shout out to all yal in surgery
and to all the rest of you i miss you something fierce

Nicole - glad that you are doing a bit better and that Dr Herman gave you a good bill of health!

Hopefully you are able to shower soon, I am sure that will make you feel better too.

Hope to see you and Jason soon

Hi Nicole,
You will feel like a new woman once you hit that shower.
Until then - the cats will have to manage - tell them to hold their paw over their nose.
Glad to hear that are doing a little better.

Hi Nicole,

Hang in there, girlfriend.  You'll be fine.  And the Frankenstein look will be replaced with something beautiful soon enough!!! 

Oh Nicole....I wish I had some pixie dust to make the time go faster for you.  Hang in there hon....you will be feeling your normal self soon. 

Nicole,

Glad to hear that another drain was pulled.  2 down only one to go, and that is PHENOMENAL

Don't compare yourself to what others are doing - you will heal in your own time and I'm sure once you are able to shower you will feel much much MUCH better.

And hey - tell the cats to go take a whiff of their litter box every once in awhile...that is certainly no bed of roses either!

You're doing great!

Pam

Hi Nicole,
Glad to hear from you!  I've been thinking about you and have been keeping up on your progress.  Hope you're feeling better soon!  It's a little discomfort for great results!  Hang in there!
Cheryl

thanks so much. I know that you know what I am going through.
Your perfect scar is what motivated me to do this and use Herman. He has
been very good with me.
BTW I LOVE YOUR PIC

Hi Nicole
 I am so glad to hear that you are feeling better

"all it looks like now is frankenstein porn down there"  LOL ... I said the SAME thing after my tummy tuck!  The first few weeks/month post op are tough.. You look down and wonder how you can ever look normal again, I was completely freaked out (I also had A LOT of swelling and fluid collection under my skin) but had to keep telling myself "Dr. Bottger knows what he's doing, he wouldn't be calm if this wasn't normal".  So no worries.. It took me 4 to 6 weeks to really look at myself and not be a little freaked :)  Now it's been 1.5 years and my scars are barely noticable and I couldn't be happier :)  Congrats on taking that step! and remember that it just gets better.
