Day Eight

Got my appointment through for the operation - August 9th, so two weeks away. Mixed feelings, part of me wishes it could be sooner, part of me is scared. In a little bit of pain today, didn't wear a bra to work as I find them uncomfortable but not had any support in that department! Quite liberating though! Had a long talk with one of my girlfriends at work, she is keeping a very good eye on me and she understands what I am going through which is a huge help. Another good friend is living with this as a time bomb - her mother has had it and survived, her aunt died. Friends are all rallying around. Am feeling cold today and my hair is starting too look out of condition, it's not shiny any more and feels dry. If I was a labrador, I'm sure my nose would be dry! Still eating properly - with lots of chocolate on the side!
