Well its almost here, the very last expansion. I am really looking forward to it as i feel like I have overcome a massive hurdle in my life and all is left is my nipple reconstruction. I am looking forward to the new year and getting used to my new body, my confidence is growing day by day and I do feel so much better about my appearance. I had a lovely Christmas with my family, and I have my wedding to my amazing fiancee to look forward to in the new year.
I found out when i was 23 years old that i was a carrier of the BRACA 1 genetic mutation. I decided when i was only 28 years old to have a bilateral double mastectomy, that was the hardest decision of my life. Here is my story.......

GOOD NEWS X
Well I had really good news yesterday a modelling agency got in contact asking if I wanted to be the new face of M&S post mastectomy bra range. How exciting for me :) everything I wanted to do I have achieved much more I am so proud of myself. I cant imagine going in to Marks and Spencer's and seeing my face on the box, how odd would that be, but what an achievement for me. Things are looking up, just one more important phone call and Iwill be over the moon. If everyone had posative thoughts for me over the weekend I am sure that I will recive the call we have been waiting for x

THE END IS NEAR!! DOUBLE MASTECTOMY
Feeling rather low today, not feeling to great about my new breasts. I seam to have more ups and downs now than I did when I had my operation, I think its because I know I have to get used to the way I look and that's hard to deal with when I have one breast a lot higher than the other. They say its fluid from where I had my hematoma and it will go down in time but I want it to go down now :( so many questions.. why cant they draw the fluid off?? why leave me like this??why why why?? you can see in the picture that one is a lot higher that the other, it looks like I have no breast on the right side. I suppose I am glad for one thing though is that I never had go through what a lot of woman go through. So while I try and keep my chin up and think of the positives, I will look forward to the end of the line and I can put the mastectomy behind me forever.......Dream of getting married on the beatiful island of the BAHAMAS X
