I'm actually glad I did, too, because it seved as even deeper confirmation of my choice.Kayleighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15347199277007746114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1640489454405982637.post-69734349116440968892009-06-24T21:21:24.611-07:002009-06-24T21:21:24.611-07:00PHENOMENAL!

I shudder to think what the "lower echelon" ones would have said or tried to convince me to do. In looking at pix on the net I've seen some baaaaad recons. It's really scary out there.<br /><br />I'm lucky I found the doc I did.Kayleighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15347199277007746114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1640489454405982637.post-83097773730075434252009-06-21T20:05:56.472-07:002009-06-21T20:05:56.472-07:00Good grief, are you kidding me?

That's appalling.<br /><br />Maybe the average plastic surgeon doesn't understand that you are asking for "reconstruction", something that actually matches your body and remaining breast as it is/was, instead of striving for something totally plastic and fake.Karihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13212083582840025605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1640489454405982637.post-10891270750684786292009-06-21T17:22:54.458-07:002009-06-21T17:22:54.458-07:00That is absolutely boggling: real doctors said tho...That is absolutely boggling: real doctors said those things to you??
