Re: For Gemello who deserves the best

[Guest guest]

Dear Gemello, I think that you just have to do what you want to do deep down, i know from your posts you are a kind and giving person, I am sure you do take in to consideration your job and family and your partner, but....................From all your hard efforts and from where you were and where you are and where you are going to go, you deserve to do whatever it is that would best as they say in Jerry Maguire ( complete you)..... I didnt mean to steal that but it is what i mean to say................I think our bodies are sometimes like a house, do you ever see a room, and want to paint it, and then your like hmmmmmmmm maybe i should tile or recarpet or hmmmmmm I need new curtians ect...............and when the room is done, you just sick back and enjoy all your hard efforts...........I guess I am babbeling when i really want to say, that if you want to do this and it makes you feel good about yourself and you can afford it, then DO IT.... Ok you got my two cents

worth. I hope you can relax and feel uncluttered about it soon Sincerely ColleenGemello DiGiovanni wrote:

Hello everyone:Just an update: yesterday I had an initial consultation with a plastic surgeon. Wow, it went really well, and I'm so excited. I think that I will get good results as he and my PCP think I am a good candidate for the abdominoplasty and male breast reduction surgery. The only down side to this particular surgeon is the distance from where I live and the scheduling (I've already scheduled a surgery date) which conflicts with busy time at work.Later today, I have another consultation with another plastic surgeon who is closer to where I live. I'll let you all know how that goes. Decisions, decisions!Last night I woke up at 3 AM thinking about my upcoming plastic surgery. I'm getting those old pre-op feelings. Am I doing the right thing? Am I putting my family

through too much? Will I be OK? How will I fit this into work? Am I being too self-centered by wanting surgery? Am I going too far into debt for "elective" surgery? Who do I think I am? A Hollywood Star?Oh well, just had to vent… Thanks for listening.Gemello-128 lbsColleen
