    OMG!!
    It is quickly approaching, I have my BA op three weeks today(23rd) @ Fitzroy !! I think I am all prepared post and pre op (I hope).

    I have told my mom and she is very supportive throughout my MYA journey however, my dad and my nan I am dreading telling!! I live with my dad so I need to tell him sooner rather than later. He is very old fashioned and so is my Nan, they think you shouldn’t mess with your body and cope with what nature has given you and I could of spent my money better else where lol- anyone have any tips or encouragement boosts to help me tell them lol ?

    Thanks girlies xxxx

    Hey babe I’m having mine done 3 weeks today too at the Fitzroy. Just be honest with him, I was exactly the same telling my nan and grandad. My mum was really happy for me as she’s had her done too, but as my nan and grandad are quite old fashioned I didn’t really want to tell them so got my mum to do it!!!
    What are you having done? X

    I told my mum and dad fine. My nana I slipped into normal conversation. I got offered a job which starts next week so when she was asking me about it, I just slipped in “I start middle of jan after I’ve had my surgery. I can’t wait the job is this……” Haha xxx

    Well I think that it’s at that time I could be making it up haha!! I’ve got one bra, a macom one but going to get a couple of cheaper ones too. Are you ready? I’m so scared! Xxx

    I chickened out speaking to my mam face to face and ended up texting her. She’s not happy. She doesn’t know it’s in 2 weeks though….. Might have to pull my finger out and tell her exactly when it is. Whoops. Good luck xxx

    It is a horrible situation but…… Ive done the whole explanation of it’s my life and body and we onky get one life with no do overs. So I want to be happy now and not look back in a few years and wish I’d done it then. My other half wasn’t happy and still isn’t a 100% but he’s come round to the idea now because he knows how much I want them done. Xxx
