When I got home from my surgery, I remember resting in bed, in our remodeled master bedroom, with my iPad on my lap. I was browsing Amazon.com for a book or story about someone who had gone through breast reduction surgery. "Who had been on my journey before?" I wondered. I couldn't find anything that wasn't related to breast cancer. I did find blogs - some scary ones at that - and I thought, "Oh hell I'll write down my journey then, since I'm a writer (and teacher of writing), and that way others might be able to benefit from it." Just because I had nothing to reference doesn't mean others should have to go through this blindly either. So, I went back to my private blog that keeps track of my thoughts about many things and found excerpts that pertains to this particular event (the lead-up, etc.). I've added some pre-surgery thoughts and stories, but mostly, this book is concentrated on the recovery part - all the way to one year after the surgery
