In one week, I will be saying a final farewell to the one body part of mine, that humans are equally amazed by…and ridiculously offended by. NO, I don’t have cancer. (I’m doing this so I won’t). YES It’s for purely selfish reasons (I don’t want it). Yes, I’m nervous.…
my heart. We will get through this. And you will be better because of this. Mourn for them. It’s ok. They are a part of you. They helped nourish your children. They made you feel feminine. But don’t let the loss of them define you. You are still you. And…
…. I’m never going to be prepared enough. And my anxiety is doing its thing now… I did manage to find a button down (up?) shirt. Going to make another one. I also made two drain holders (bags) Now I’m just trying to figure out what are the best things…

A friend warned me this could happen. Ha. So I have a couple of internal sutures trying to work their way out. The one near my navel area is looking kind of angry. I go to Roswell tomorrow afternoon so they can have a look and do whatever it is…
I had my post-op follow up the other day, and it went well. Things are healing up good, which is a relief. And I finally have a prescription for estrodial so hoping that will help with the menopause symptoms. Then another appointment which sort of confused me, but things got…
I have been getting up and around much better these past couple of days. Slowly getting back into the swing of mom things (not that my kids really need me anymore except for actual food and clean laundry). But I’m starting to feel less stir crazy. I’m not really a…
De, sitting around doing mostly nothing.. and NOT losing her mind. 😀 Hey, listen. I knew it was gonna be something like this (And I KNOW I am being overly dramatic… I’ve been through WAY worse in life). All I’ve been doing for the past week and spare change is…
