Description
Following a breast cancer diagnosis and bilateral mastectomy, I chose reconstructive surgery with implants. Life with my new boobs lasted 16 happy years. Then, the point came when I had to replace the implants after they became hard and painful. I researched my options for removing the implants and learned about an aesthetic flat closure procedure. If I chose this option, I wouldn’t have to have any more surgeries in the future. While deciding what to do, I read a quote from the Mary Poppins movie: “Open different doors, you may find a different ‘you’ there that you never knew was yours. Anything can happen.” The quote resonated with me, so I followed my heart and said, “Off with the implants!” With this book, I created a guide with practical suggestions for before and after surgery and the first year of healing. I share how I found the right look for me and my new figure and how I dealt mentally and emotionally with the changes. I also show how I now have boobs again, featherweight removable ones that are pretty cool.
The book is available on most major sites, including epub, paperback, and hardcover.
