Re: Hmmm-hmmm, they're NASTY thangs !

Hi all,

Listening to you all telling Amy about why not to get implants etc made me think back to the first few years I had mine, and was not very ill.....I thought the implants would make my (then) basically unhappy life, happy....would ensure my husband didn't feel tempted to look at any other women, cuz he would have Ms Perfect walking right beside him.....would make me feel unashamed to walk on the beach in a bikini.......would make me the envy of other women.......would smooth the way when it came to any kind of interaction with men, business or otherwise....after all, what man can resist a sexy lady ? Aye, I had moments when the implants did some of the above, moments when I felt more confident because of them, moments when I felt down/dowdy and some man would flirt and it would cheer me up....BUT: those were far and very few between, and they are like a grain of sand on a beach when compared to the thousands of painful, exhausted, depressed, sick and angry moments I have endured since....

I also learnt that my husband is far more likely to not just look, but stray from, a wife who is always too sick and tired to do anything, that the lift it gives you receiving complimentary glances last no more than a second, that true, and I do mean true contentment, the kind that makes you feel good about yourself, consistently, no matter HOW crappy you look that day, comes from waayyy deep down inside you, that even the most scarred, malformed human being can be happy and well adjusted, if their spirit is right.

Truly, I wish I had known you all 10 years ago !!!

My bags of silicone sit on the shelf, a sad, oily-feeling reminder of my lack of self-esteem that made big breasts seem like the most important thing in the world.....they are nasty things indeed !

Ladies, I hope you all, yes even the lurkers, realise how very important you are in this world....there is a tidal wave on the horizon, made up of millions of sick women and unfortunately even kids, who will be needing our guidance, love and support in the coming years...no, this is no exageration. If you really, truly want o get a vague idea of how many of us there are in the world, find out how many implants have been sold worldwide, divide that number by half, and then again by half....I think it would be frightening indeed if the truth be known.

I am deeply, deeply grateful for your kindness, love, and support from when I joined in January until now, you are life savers, yes you and you and you too ! God bless you all richly my sisters !

Hugs
