    speaking of boobs...
    i have a recurrence in my right side, 9 years after my lumpectomy. I did think to myself
    I should have had a mastectomy, but also, the other recurrences are in my bones, and to qualify for the clinical trial, they will be measuring the one in the breast. So, it's a
    mixed curse/blessing, because it gives them something to know if the drug is working. Kind of like a canary in a coal mine!

    Linda, my cancer came back
    Linda, my cancer came back in my bones too, so your not alone with that one girl.

    When i first read the 1st
    When i first read the 1st line i started laughing because i didnt know where this was going, but then after i read on i realized how true that is. I thought it was just me. Hmmmm, i was even questioning wether or not i was gay or something. Hahahahah!! No really i can relate. I hate to see women with breast because i miss my one so much and sometimes it's harder to look in the mirror. My husband is a breast man and when i lost the one it took me so long to get used to the fact the i can never give him that ever again. I often used to think he would cheat on me because i only had 1 breast. So to cut myself off before i get to carried away, the answer to your question is YES!!!

    me too
    I look now, too. I remember when I was pregnant, all of a sudden I noticed all these other pregnant women and wondered how I looked compared to them. Now I know there is no comparison to what I was before or what other women have as I had a double mastectomy. I recently had my expanders removed and the implants put in but I can't say I'm totally satisfied. I never had cleavage and the surgeon told me that my rib and sternum construction is such that I can't have cleavage. Reconstruction is NOT the same as breast enhancement. Making something that is no longer there is not easy. Especially with summer, I wonder who's are real, fake, reconstucted, silicone, saline. I'm small (was and still is) but my 20 year old daughter is very endowed. It's uncomfortable to look at her and sometimes wish I just had one of her breasts that I could split in two. As if I don't feel pretty now, I feel even uglier when I know I'm being envious.

    I Notice stuff..........
    I can't help myself. I look at women and I am jealous of their even breasts and long luxurious hair. Ok...I'm being honest here, I never did look before.
    I guess we all miss what we used to have and obsess on it a bit....... Jxxxxxxxx
