So glad it is the weekend and I can relax after a week that was exhausting-- both emotionally and physically!

I have gotten my next appointment with Dr. Lu, my plastic surgeon to be able to talk about the next step.  I will be meeting with him on Nov. 2nd in the morning.  I am hoping to discuss all the options and a time-frame for all that will occur. 

It has also been a fun day because I found out a new connection to this being a small world... I just found out that one of the teachers I have known for the past 14 years and the secretary at Radiation have children who are married to each other (so they are the mother-in-laws).  These two women have been angels to me in different ways and it gave me goose bumps to find out that they have a connection to each other!!  It has been so much fun to find all the connections God has put on my journey!!  I am still in awe of all the twins that have been on this journey with me.  There have been twins in every office I have visited throughout this journey-- nurses with twin children, nurses/ techs who are a twin, and doctors who have twin children.  It is almost the way in which I know I am in the right place-- a little inside "joke" with God.

I am not sure I have shared this before and I know it might be a little TMI so feel free to stop reading..... One annoying thing about these new boobs is that since my muscles have been moved and are on top of the tissue expanders I am having muscle spasms.  All of a sudden my boobs will flex or jump.  I now have a new talent of being able to make my chest move when I concentrate on it.... aren't I lucky!?!?!?

Oh the hormone saga still goes on... I am waiting to see if the Tamoxifen has put me into Menopause again or if I will be at the mercy of this drug and how my body reacts.  I am doing better with the panic attacks which is a blessing because they are so draining!  I am so glad this medicine is available and will give me years to watch these girls grow up!!  They are amazing to me and I love to see them as they are changing each day!!
