Title: Montreal Day 3
Post by: Kristyn on September 14, 2010, 09:42:47 PM
So yesterday I had my consult with Dr. Brassard and things went very well to say the least.  I discussed my concerns and expectations.  I mentioned how I wanted the clitoris to be made larger, not by much, but by just maybe one more beyond his norm.  Apparently, after the majority of the healing takes place, the clitoris will contract somewhat--on some people more than others.  So  to be safe, I opted for this option.  I also showed him some images of how I would prefer my outer labia to look and he was very receptive to that.

Sarah has been a fine ambassador for us all.  Her openess and willingness to share her experience and results have helped ease all our fears and worries.

So here I am, along with my surgery partner, at the hospital.  We've both just finished our second enemas--yum!!!  She's adorable and we are both bonding well.  I'm number three on Brassards card tomorrow.  Originally I thought I was number one but, upon arriving at the hospital, we were told Brassard has four surgeries scheduled--one BA which is first, then my surgery partner, then me.  Not too bad,  number three following the two warm up acts!   :laugh:

To be quite honest, I'm not really feeling too much fear or anxiety--I'm really quite content.  I'm confident everything will go well and am looking forward to a new beginning.   :)  However, I don't think I would feel this good if I did not have all the positive influences around me.  From Sarah relating her experiences, to the support of my Mom and family, to all the kind people here all of which played a paramount role in getting me through this.

I just did my intake, so now I need to sleep.

Kristyn, it's great to see that you're finally there! Only a few more hours until your life moves one step closer to complete fulfillment. Dr. Brassard is a great surgeon and I'm sure you'll be happy with the results.

Congratulations for your big day!
