Re: amber, thank you SO MUCH for sharing.....

Oh sweetie! I totally understand- I wouldn't hug my husband ever and when I did I would put my arms up over my breasts to almost protect them- it was always weird to have them in! But after I healed really well without them in and didn't have too much pain but give your body the time and nutrients to heal. So important! The bone structures are your ribs I'm assuming. Mine feel weird still and there's barely anything to grab. But I will just have to live with it I suppose- I wish there was other options...maybe someday. I ordered Breast Gain a week ago and hope that it gives me something! Some people it's worked for and I would give any amount of money to have even a normal looking B cup- but life goes on and I have to learn from the mistake I made...I am so sorry about how you'll feeling and I just hope you know you'll feel better and better and you're not alone. Hang in there and know that's it's NOT the most important thing even though it's hard and that you are

SO loved.Write anytime if you EVER need to talk about anything. I know how hard it is....

Kathie, I am so sorry you've had to go through all of this. First

the cancer, then implant illness, and now you're struggling post-

explant. I don't know if there's anything I can say that will make

you feel better, but just want you to know that I send my thoughts

and prayers your way.
