Geraldine Hickey - A Weight Off My Chest

I had breast reduction surgery, but they took them all. They were big and heavy and I wanted it to be easier to find clothes that would fit. I wanted to be ready to evacuate in the middle of the night and not think I would die in a fire with one arm stuck in a bra strap. I wanted to believe in the possibility of doing a handstand… without hitting myself in the face.
