Brneda--have them check for a valium (or whatever meds they gave) reaction. My dad thought he was in a prison camp in Korea after his second heart attack and it turned out he was very VERY sensitive to the valium. It took about six weeksfor him to come "back." The first two weeks or so of that no one knew what the heck happened to him, so it was very nervous-making.
I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
~ma for brenda's dad. And ~ma for brenda, too.
Tar-zhay actually carries bras above a D-cup?
I know they have DD. I'm not sure about anything bigger than that. And, Kohl's is a good idea.

It could be, Ginger. That's a problem too, actually. They're giving him Oxycontin, which makes him itchy and antsy, so when they offer him two he only takes one, with the result that he's itchy and still in pain.

{{Brenda}} I hope he recovers quickly.
And, because I forgot to say anything last night: Connie, I hope everything turns out okay.

Much ~ma brenda. I support checking on the pain medication/anesthesia.
I've had good luck at Target with bras, I think with DDs. It was a similar sort of size in changing so I want to buy cheap bras situation, and they served.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights
Much healthma for Brenda's dad.
Although I could swear maybe DD, at least.
Heh. Right now the 40IIJ's (whatever the heck that means) I got in mid-pregnancy are getting a little too loose and unsupportive, but I'm nowhere near being able to wear my pre-preg 36DDD's yet. I've got some serious breastage here. My hope is that once I get down to 155 lbs. or so (which, at a big-boned 5'8", I've made my goal weight), I'll only be a DD. Maybe I'd better stick to LB.

Yeah. I'm going up there tomorrow and I'll have some words if they havent' corrected the situation. In the mean time I'ma sic my mom's best friend on them, as she is well versed in pain management, mental disorientation, and fighting with doctors and hospitals.

Susan, you might not ever get down to your pre-Annabel breast size. The rib cage expansion can stick just enough to keep them a size above. (My mother's ribs went back, but I think she gained a cup size for each of us, which isn't the normal way it goes--normally, you lose breast size.)
Target doesn't have *anything* above a DD, not even in nursing bras. The fuckers. I'm kind of bitter about this.
If you can't find what you need at Lane Bryant, try the close out section at the Bon (well, I guess it's officially Macy's now, but whatev). That's where I did all my pre-pregnancy bra shopping, and I was able to score DD/DDD bras for under $20 each. (I'm very sad that I have all these nice bras in good shape that will probably never fit me again. Sigh.)
