Anyone over 50?

[ptmyers 1]

Hi. I'm pretty new here (just found this site last week). I'm getting banded on Wednesday, Dec 17th. I'm wondering how many of you are over 50? From what I've read, most of you are younger -- some much younger. I'm worried that I won't heal as quickly and that my skin won't shrink. I'm afraid I'll have all this skin hanging down and my boobs will look like tube socks with golf balls in them. Doesn't that sound sexy? Anyone out there with similar concerns?
