“Hi, I Am A Recovering Breast Cancer Survivor!”  Those were the first few words out of my recent dates mouth.  She then asked me if that bothered me?   I told her “no” even though I was over whelmed.

She seemed very nice, but since my late wife died of cancer, I wasn’t sure if I was ready to deal with this. But, I gave it my best shot.

She then went on to describe her breast reconstruction surgery. They took flesh from her stomach and not her back to rebuild her breasts.  But, I wasn’t sure if she had breasts with nipples or just fat bumps.  She didn’t say and I didn’t ask. (it was a first date after all)

At this point in time, I knew that I needed to ask her out again.  Other wise, I would seem like a hypocrite.  So I did but she stood me up.

Well, OK!!
