Plastic surgeon, new hair, and bathroom redo

We met with the plastic surgeon on Tuesday and it was pretty weird. My Dr is really nice but he's much more casual and relaxed than the others. Probably because his portion of this situation doesn't save my life. One of the big questions is where to do a bilateral mastectomy or not. I really do not want to have to go through all this again. I think if I have to do Chemo and my insurance will cover it then I am just going to do them both. Of course if my BRCA1 results come back positive (giving me a 50% chance of relapse) then all the doctors say they would urge me to do a bilateral. If it comes back negative then I think I will stick with just the one side for now and see what the pathology report says. So basically, still no new news yet. I decided to cut my hair though. I am a little sad it's shorter but I know if I have to do chemo I will be really glad I already cut it. This isn't the greatest picture ever but you get the idea.


I have been wanting to paint our half bath for a while now and I figured I better do it before surgery. This weekend Dan helped me measure it out and tape it off and then I painted. I really like how it turned out.
Before - Dan is such a cheese ball

After
Now I just need to put some kind of artwork up and then we will be done. I'm not anxious about surgery yet but I know I will be, so I'm trying to think of some projects to keep myself busy this weekend. I'm glad Dan has Fridays off so he can help keep me distracted!
 
I'm sure this little guy will help keep us busy too!

You are beautiful--however you wear your hair. I wasn't able to access the video--not sure why, except something about being unplugged.

I love the bathroom! You did a really good job. And your hair looks great. Camden's sweat band is the best, so cute.

I love the bathroom! So great.

I decided I'm going to wear pink for you on Wednesday in support of your upcoming surgery. I'll post something on FB so everyone else can join in. We'll be like your little pink army :)
