You are absolutely on the right track with the way you are figuring it David.
I have read this somewhere and liked it very much as is so true for many of us here;
� My scars are my red badge of courage. I view my scars as a sign of survival and, frankly, I don't care if it isn't pretty. I am very proud of them.�
For me the swimsuit issue is a little different�I only show my body in a women�s only Aqua Aerobics class. Have that normal �extra pounds� female thing going on blush
Hope you and Linda enjoy your first swim together before you run out of summer over there.
Love to you both
Gabriele
