Hi Friends,

They riveted the velcro onto the brace. There are 12 rivets all together. I told my friend who made it about the brace exploding at KMart. He didn't know what to say or do. He wanted to laugh but was afraid he'd hurt my feelings. It was so funny. I told him it was like trying to hold your pantyhose up when they're falling down and doing it so no one notices. lololololol!!!!!!!!!!!!!

On a more serious note, the brace is sliding down and I'm not getting all the compression I need so he's going to have to make a new brace that extends from under my arms to my tail bone. It's going to be so hot and oh so tight, but I just have to do it.

It's also going to be humiliating to have the new mold. There's no hiding any defects in your figure when you do that and believe me, I have more defects than you can imagine. Yes, you have stocking net on, but everything shows.

All good thoughts and prayers needed. Feel free to laugh about "The Great KMart Brace Explosion".
