July 17, 2013. I can’t say anything positive about drains except when they are removed. That is a happy moment!

I had one drain put in when my plastic surgeon put in an implant to replace the tissue expander. Six very looooong days of what I am hoping is my very last drain forever.

For me this was the end of my surgery journey. My reconstruction is still fabulous, and I am cancer free to this day.

Thank you to my skilled surgeons. I look amazing!
