it just gets better

I went and saw the plastic surgeon today. Last night the scab over my implant started leaking so they got me in to see him today. The implant has become exposed and has to come out. He’s getting me in on Monday for the surgery because I start radiation on Thursday. He kept apologizing to me which I found odd. Before I knew when the surgery was I asked about the urgency of getting it out. He said if it wasn’t taken out it would fall out. Then went on to tell me a story of a woman who’s implant fell out while she was golfing and she just taped it back in!! I’m not going through any of this again. Guess I’m looking into prosthetics next.
A bright side to all this? I’ll be back at work sooner than I thought.
