My first time seeing my legs standing up after skin removal!

For the first 4 days or so, I didn’t get the chance to see my legs while standing and looking in the mirror until this moment with @Drshawnmoshrefi . I had my emotional reaction when I saw them on the table for the first time. This was a different kind of reaction.

It’s such a strange feeling… to feel disconnected from your body because it looks and feels different than what you’re used to, while at the same time thinking, “this makes sense.”

That’s how I’ve felt with all of my surgeries. There’s this mix of unfamiliarity, like the body attached to me doesn’t quite feel like mine yet… but also a deep sense of alignment, like “this is how it was always supposed to be.”

Not in the sense that our bodies are supposed to look a certain way… I don’t think they are. But I do think they’re supposed to feel a certain way to us. Like home. Like relief. Like connection.

I’m so grateful I got to experience this moment Dr. Moshrefi. I truly couldn’t have imagined having a surgeon who cares for me the way he does.
