All tied up - the reality
Added 2023-10-11 07:49:40 +0000 UTCI'm feeling a bit more myself post-surgery now. I was full of anxieties the last week of recovery, fears and worries haunted me while I was stuck inside my room and mostly bed-ridden for days. It hurt to move and my chest was so painful and swollen. I have to wear a ribcrushing compression corset night and day for the next 2 months and can't take a normal breathe. It is uncomfortable and I can't lie down, I have to sleep in a half sitting position and wake up every few hours due to the pain.
I thought I made a big mistake at times... maybe I ruined my body and jeopardised my physical performance and athletic abilities? I was terrified I wouldn't be able to carry out my plans for the future after jumping in with both feet. However today I'm feeling a lot better. The swelling is slowly subsiding and I can see glimpses of how my new breasts could look in the future after they're fully healed. It's giving me hope and something to look forward to for sure. I'm OK. I'm still grateful to be here, grateful for the lessons and the experience.
Thank you all for supporting me on this journey. I really appreciate you all and will do my best to keep giving you my best when I have the capacity. Take care and arohanui my loves. Xx ❤️
