| JM's Story
    It all started about 7 years ago while I was living 
              in Indianapolis,Indiana. My husband is a Professional Hockey Player and we were
 living and playing out a 3 year contract there. It was all so new 
              to me
 having been raised in a small town, and not knowing how many
 options and opportunities there was out there it got very interesting
 and curiosity started to get peaked.
   I had no trouble making friends throughout the team, 
              but I wanted tomeet some locals that could maybe show me the ropes as far as all
 the cool spots to hang out. Through some fans of my husbands I
 ended up meeting two women who would forever change my life.
 These two women had it all...brains, good looks and two of the most
 perfect sets of breast I had ever seen, to my amazement I couldn't
 even believe that breasts like this were possible until they gave 
              me the
 low down. Both of these women had gotten BA's, and they couldn't 
              tell
 me enough information about it, I thought the whole idea of it was 
              so
 incredible. That's when I first started pestering my husband about 
              the
 idea (and let me tell you, it was not an idea he even considered 
              for
 me at the time).
   Despite my efforts, I was getting nowhere so I dropped 
              the wholeBoobie thing for a while, but two years later the thought came back
 into my head and this time it wasn't going anywhere. So I either 
              had
 to get the boob job, or be jealous for the rest of my life for all 
              the other
 women that had. But I still had a long road ahead of me, but after
 about 4 years my husband opened himself up to the idea, and
 proceeded to tell me he would consider it if we had a certain amount
 of money, and to my great delight that time came last Summer when
 he signed his Hockey contract. At that point the flood gates were 
              open
 and Breast Augmentation was all I had on my mind. I researched it 
              for
 the following 9 months, first in the U.S.A (with no luck) than I 
              got
 referred to www.canadaba.ca and my life became alot easier. I had 
              a
 couple of Doctor's in mind, but I don't think Dr. Lista ever left 
              my mind
 as being my number one choice as a Plastic Surgeon.
   I was very excited the 2 weeks before my first consult 
              because it meant I was that much closer to getting it done. In the consultation 
              I
 was very happy when Dr. Lista seemingly answered all the questions
 I had before I even had a chance to ask them, that mixed with his
 honesty told me he was the one (for sure). The second consult was
 over the phone, (due to the fact I live out of the T.O area) and 
              at this
 time I gave him my decisions on the options he had given me, and 
              it
 all happened very fast from that point on.
    At this point there was 3 weeks until my surgery, 
              and I had to get myself in gear as far as getting a physical, blood work, prescriptions
 etc. It sounded like more than what it really was and it turned 
              out to
 be a breeze.
   As for the day of surgery I wasn't nervous or scared 
              at all, and I trusted Dr. Lista and his staff completely so I knew I was in good 
              hands. The anesthesiologist told me the IV would hurt a little more
 than a bee sting, but I didn't even feel it at all, so on the operating
 table I was teasing him about that. The next thing I remember is
 waking up with the new girls in my chest. At this point I felt no 
              pain
 because I was still so drowsy, but by the time I got in my truck 
              I knew it
 was time for to take a pain killer or two. Also, I had a huge amount 
              of
 bruising (which isn't unusual for us transax gals) so that was
 causing the bulk of it. My husband took care of me completely for 
              1
 whole week and made me feel like a princess with a new tiara.
   Since the surgery I have been back to visit the Dr. 
              a few times and it just makes me more and more happy each time I go in, because I
 can see him taking pride in his work also.
   I would definately recommend not only a BA to someone 
              who askedme about it, but I would also highly recommend my surgeon also.
