    Be thinking of you Shelley and wishing a quick return to full health. Power of positive thought is second to nothing. Read Paul McKenna's work on TFT. Might help.x

    Shelley,

    Just discovered this thread, and wanted to say how awful the last few weeks must have been for you, but that I am pleased that you are able to draw strength from this site. Enjoy the Moto - and wishing you a speedy recovery from the op.

    On another front - I'm 31 and had a subtotal hysterectomy last year after suffering badly with endometriosis. We were unable to have children due to the damage this illness caused.

  • Hi Shelly,

    I will be thinking of you and hoping everything goes the way you want it to. You are sounding very brave, but it's also perfectly ``normal'' to have times when you don't feel good. It doesn't mean you won't feel differently another day, it's just a perfectly normal human reaction to stress and trauma. You don't have to be ``brave'' all the time.

    Allow yourself to be however you are. Try to take care of your own needs if you can. You sound like you have good advice and support. That's really important.

    Take good care of you,

    Precious Thing.

    Thank you all again for your support and kind words.


    Heard from my consultant today that my surgery is going to be on 3rd July. Glad to have a couple of weeks to chill and relax before the big day.
