Journal entry by JOY CARR —
I had a follow-up appointment with plastic surgery today. They are recommending that I have a breast lift on my left side. It's about an inch lower than my right. They also want to do fat grafting in both sides to fill in an area. They like to wait until 6 months post-surgery before doing this outpatient surgery, so it's tentatively scheduled for October 28th. I'll be off work 1-2 weeks. I'm happy that they are able to make my breasts look better and that it'll be done before the end of the year since I've met my out-of-pocket max for this year. I'm not excited about another procedure...it brings tears to my eyes. Just another step to feeling whole again 💖
