37. I get my breast implant tomorrow.

The tissue expander has been very uncomfortable. I am looking forward eagerly to having something on the left side of my chest that resembles the breast on my right. It's supposed to be a quick procedure, but I still have to observe all the pre-op procedures. Jewelry off, Hibiclens showers, etc. Hopefully this will be my last procedure for a while!
