for the Las Chicas Crew--
yall provide the mill-$ lawsuits, i'll score the tequila and weed--(and lots of LIMES! we'll need lots of limes)
kristi, ah, physical deformity--this is very little like your case, but i want to share this with you anyway. i had somewhat severe scoliosis as a teeneager; my body curved in an "s" shape to the right. i was always so embarrassed, especially with guys...finally i got the right surgery (and thank god it was covered completely by my dad's military insurance--a spinal surgery like that costs upwards of $20,000--money we don't have) and suddenly i was an inch-and-a-half taller with a foot-long thick scar snaking down my right torso. i always feel i have to explain the scar. of course i do. they ask about it.
i can't empathize completely--the breasts are a feminine symbol, and 18 surgeries--oh lawdy--i just wanted to let you know that i have the littlest idea idea of what physical deformity is like--very disheartening. my scar is very thick and pink, ropey, and my best boyfriends have always had sweet things to say about it--"like a river over broken glass," "it makes you look so strong" etc--why are children out of the question because of your breasts?
i learned in my anthropology class that approximately only 3 countries in the world view breasts as sexy. most men in other countries view them simply as maternal.
shit, i don;t think this is going to help. i'm feeling for you, kristi. i don't know what to say, so i'll quit saying stoopid things, except one more--do you think that, with the lawsuit money, you'll be able to hire on an expert surgeon?
love
