Lyn and Merridith
Looks like many of us are in the same boat. Lyn, I too have a husband who is 9 years younger....I have had reconstruction, but my get up and go has gotten up and gone...I am almost 53...my husband trys to be understanding but I dont think he really knows how devastating this whole ordeal can be and the toll it takes on a woman...after reconstruction, I look somewhat normal again, but my reconstructed side is still painful after a year and a half....then to add misery is all the comments we need to hear about what big boobs or a nice chest this girl has or that girl has...and we wonder where our sex drive has gone? I too try to sneak into bed, but I usually wake him up with all the throwing on and off the covers from those blasted hot flashes....I honestly fluctuate between needing 3 blankets and warm jammies to needing fans on while sleeping in next to nothing.
Hugs
Sheila
