Dreams

I have a silly question...I've been having dreams latley that after my surgery I would be able to feel the band in my chest and I was going crazy because I could not get it out! I guess it's just the though of putting something foreign in my body that's freaking me out a little bit.

Ginger, don't worry, you can't really feel the band after it's in.

In fact, I can't even feel my port even though I know where it is because I just got a fill! The only evidence of my surgery is just the incision scars (and they're quickly fading away).

For me, having a foreign object in me wasn't very upsetting. It makes me feel almost like a "bionic" woman, having these cool state-of-the-art silicone and titanium parts in me.
