What a title--eh? Hope it doesn't offend my Christian friends. Most of my friends are Christian so it's important it doesn't.
Since the breast surgery my self-esteem and view of my body has drastically changed. I have tried to look in the mirror each day to get myself used to it but I'm not yet. My next operation is still five months away so I have time to wait and get used to it.
I have had twenty something surgies. No one knows any more. We go by ballpark figures. Because of the surgeries, I have scars and quite a few of them. Looking in the mirror last night I realized that if my scars were connected, it would honest to goodness look like my body is a map and a street is being mapped on it. I have the surgery on my scalp from my brain operation. Under that is surgery from the lymph node biopsy in 2006. Under that is my thyroid scar surgery. Then you have the scars on my breasts both right through to the nipple and the ones underneath. Then there is the large scar from finding both tumors and the extensive biopsy. Finally closing in the street would be my horizontal C-section scar.
I'm truly a work of art. Truly.
