Breast Model

Jenni, Jenni’s sister-in-law Becca, and I went to the Women’s Expo. We had a wonderful time. The Expo had hundreds of booths that were fun. Bags, belts, home storage, pre-school books, necklaces and more. We had a blast looking at all the fun booths. At the end of our Expo our experience we came upon a booth. There was a sweet girl sitting on a “jazzy” chair, you know chair that are mobile. She was about 6-7 months pregnant and looking very bored. I looked up on the sign and it read “Petersen Medical”. I said to her, “Petersen Medical? My son-in-law starts with Petersen Medical next Monday.” “Real, who is your son-in-law?”
“Brandon Walker?”
“Oh, yea I’ve heard of him.”
“So what do you do for Petersen?”
“I do prosthetics,”
“Prosthetics”
“Yes, I do boobs”
“I need boobs , I can’t do reconstruction, so I need fake boobs.”
We talked for a while and she told me that I could get prosthetics, 2 bra’s and my insurance would pay for it. I was happy and made an appointment to meet with Kirsteen on Tuesday.
Jenni, Terry and I met Kirsteen at Petersen Medical. I thought we were going in to be fitted for my “new breasts” We sat down and waited for Kirsteen. I sat on a chair and it started to rise up. I mean the chair seat started to come up. I couldn’t figure out why the chair was rising. I got up and I was sitting on the remote control. Jenni and Terry started laughing.
Kirsteen came out of her office and asked me if I would ever consider helping the company to train new employees in fittings prostheses? We were in the store portion of the store.
I said, “ You want me to be your boob model? I would love to be your model. Wow, I had to lose my breasts to become a boob model. Crazy!”
So a week later, I am teaching two girls how to place prosthetics, or at least allow my body to be used. I joked with them that they were lucky it was me who was their model and not a grouchy old woman. The two girls did a great job and to tell you the true, I am glad to help, and teach.
So, I guess I’m a breast model, and they even gave me a gift certificate.
