Lately, I've just been wearing whatever I want and if people ask they ask. If they stare, they stare. It is what it is. I didn't ask for it or want it, but there are worse things. I won't let it change me. :)Sandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06521088520231972617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14259322.post-5664219667217746672009-06-19T07:04:13.451-07:002009-06-19T07:04:13.451-07:00I'm not in your shoes, but I hope one day you ...I'm not in your shoes, but I hope one day you can look at it like stretch marks or a c-section scar: "I am Sandra! Hear me roar!"<br /><br />I would think you'd be used to annoying comments after pregnancy. :) J/k. I know I just had to nod and smile sometimes, but I dunno, maybe you can have a snappy comeback. "Why are you looking at my boobs?"

People that comment on such things are do...Sandra,<br /><br />People that comment on such things are downright rude. My husband has the same scar. His surgery was in 2001. The redness will leave after a time. <br /><br />Don't pay them any mind. You are so lucky to live in a time when heart surgery is possible. My first hubby wasn't as fortunate. Those were the days before all the modern technology. <br /><br />Praying for you.<br />Blessings,<br />MaryMaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08175754179624182953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14259322.post-52483165087833671402009-06-11T06:33:43.255-07:002009-06-11T06:33:43.255-07:00Yeah people are strange.

I'm not self conscious about the scar in the fact that I care if others see it. I just don't want people thinking it means they can ask me questions or talk to me about it. I'm kinda private like that. <br />I haven't used Maderma yet, but will. I have to wait another week or so before I can put anything on it just to avoid any chance of infection. <br />I'll look into the makeup! Any excuse to buy new makeup right?Sandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06521088520231972617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14259322.post-34769361997734564692009-06-10T21:30:38.090-07:002009-06-10T21:30:38.090-07:00I understand completely.

There is also some makeup specifically to cover scarring and wear like iron. I've seen that and it's amazing stuff. One of my brides had a huge birthmark on her cheek and you couldn't tell.<br /><br />Get yourself some new shirts, and if people insert themselves into your business, just say 'That's private'.<br />Most people will apologize right away.<br /><br />You weren't too young, or too old, you had what you had and that was it.<br /><br />In time, your scar will fade, as will your self consciousness.Carahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07679741742125922220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14259322.post-535646711612396022009-06-08T07:59:35.069-07:002009-06-08T07:59:35.069-07:00yikes... people are so weird.
