Thank you all for holding me up. My eyes are as wet as my toes.

Ummm....Costco sells big packages of adult undergarments to help with the wet toe thing.

That is what we are here for - to help each other {{{{{Hugs}}}}} I am glad it all turned out all right!

I'm new to the forum, but glad to hear that things are looking up ChunkyFrog! I did the cancer thing last year and although clear still, I found I have a cancer gene, so will never completely be out of the woods. But! Hey, I was completely distracted by losing my vision to give it more than a passing thought (well, after recovery from surgery). All seems stable now and I'm confident that something else will eventually kill me. Worry doesn't help anything, so try not to.

If you know anybody who knits or crocheted (or you do yourself), there are several patterns for knitted boobs. I knitted a bunch of them when my local hospital opened a breast cancer center a few years ago. They are more gentle to use while you are healing than the commercial ones.

Knitted titties--what a sweet, funny idea! --but too late for me.
I had my reconstruction at the same time as the mastectomies,
so I am now sporting what is known in the silicone boobie biz as "gummy bears".

Gummy bears... okay, so it brings to mind bullfrog with dentures on the bedside table (no idea if he has his own choppers or not)...or of you with chest hair. Either way, an ODD visual.

Enjoy.

Great news. Hope you keep rockin' that lily pad for many more years to come.

I'm holding my breath; any day now, DH will want to make nipples on his 3-D printer.

"Lee 'press on' nipples"??????

They could be phosphorescent, holding a blacklight LED and a button cell.
Kinky night lights.

"excuse me madam, I don't know if you realize, but your nipples are blinking, and it's rather having a detrimental effect, we've already had sixteen people trip and fall due to the distraction."

New senior Christmas song?
"3 replaced hips, 2 blinking tatas and a case of adult undergarments...."
Umm...our frog hit a new level of youth.

You know what they say -- falls are one of the most common accidents for older adults. Now we know why.
