How about of my new ones since mine couldn't be saved???
Amazing what WONDERFUL Doctors can do now days with some expanded skin and two bags filled with water. Those aren't mine, they are fake... Actually, I guess I can call them mine now, just not OEM.
I have a few pounds to lose on my middle, that's what stopping all estrogen will do to a gal. I really don't care. Right now is my time to not worry about weight for a while and just enjoy. Besides when I told the Surgeon I wanted to lose the 7 pounds I gained post surgery he just about screamed NOOOOOOO! It even startled Robert. Doc doesn't want me to lose an ounce. What? Will they sag or something??
The mate in the picture is Colin. He was visiting us from the UK. HE was our truck driver back in the good ol' Reiser Callas days.

THANK YOU EVERYONE!!!
I just got home after a theraputic massage. It was wonderful. They have this special pillow for me to lay on my belly. I want to get one for home! ANYWAY, I'm really out of it so if you don't mind, I think I'm going to hit the sheets early tonight.
I think I'm pushing it a little. I do need a vacation.
You guys are the best. I've got a long way to go to my goal, but I have some time so tonight, I rest.
Hugs and more Hugs......

Thanks Chuck. I just want people to see you can look okay after a double mastectomy and reconstruction. It is much better than I imagined it would look like. Honestly, I thought it was going to be two mounds of plastic bags and water, but other than the scars (and they are fading pretty fast) I'm amazed that look real (with a couple of wrinkles lol). My hope is that if someone sees my picture and then has to go through what I've been through, they will know that you can look fine and feel good about themselves. It's amazing what they can do now days.

Have to send some more THANK YOU'S out tonight.
I have no idea who some of you are... I mean I know most of you by screen name and when you donate, I get to know your real names. I can't always connect the two. So in addition to sending out thank you emails, I'm going to keep on sending out THANK YOU's here whenever I get donations. I don't want to miss ANYONE. EVER.
Luv ya guys! THANK YOU!!!

I received three more donations last night and early this morning. I think two of them were through the 993 forum so I wanted to say THANK YOU again.
I am now 35% of the way to my goal. 43+ women can get mammograms now thanks to those SGK grants. 5 of those women have a good chance of being diagnosed with breast cancer. Just think of it... you just helped save those 5 women's lives.
THANK YOU
HUGS.
If you haven't donated, but have a hankering to do so, please do and I thank you too! Just click Donate to Joanne:

Well... I'd like to thank who ever made the generous Donation to me today, but he didn't leave an email address or address and paid in cash. I don't know if it's from here on the 993 forum or from OT or the other place.
So if that is you.... THANK YOU!!!
It's like having a secret friend.

Donation made... Good luck JoAnne! Not that you are going to need it...
Lisa and I are still keeping our eyes open for a good 356, so let me know if you hear of anything that's just too good to pass up. I think we are looking for a late model (63-65), but open to other ideas...

THANK YOU GUYS!!
You have been the light in what has been a very sad day for me, and for many.
Been thinking of Chuck. What a good man......
........and my cousin's sister in law who had her Double Mastectomy yesterday, at 31.
Grrrrrrrrrrrr cancer.
Really, Thank you. I'm up $250.00 today. That is reason enough to smile.
