that's my final answer.....

Maria, you are too cute!! Thank you :)   My bat wings are swinging back baby!! 

italian?

Will they do a total hysterectomy with removal of your ovaries?  Then you will go into surgical menopause....  Best wishes for the best possible outcome, quick recovery and relief of all your symptoms. 

Hey Linda...no total...just taking the baby maker and leaving the ovaries. That was the biggest concern I shouted out. I know its a lot of reconstruction work but hey, I should be good to go for another 1,000,000 + miles with this tune up right?? LOL  

Thanks for your support!! You all are wonderful and so appreciated, you just don't know...

:)

i was going to ask the same thing about ur ovaries as we know the longer we keep em the younger we stay good luck to you and glad ur virginia will be well again

 I think thats a smart decision Diana ...

Oh yeesh, Diana! Hang on - I'll capture the cats and swing like mad for you! Glad hubby is coming home and will be able to nurse you for a while!

 Well ya know sista...the old me would have just 'lived' with all the issues and chuck it up to the obesity...but now, I have come too far to allow something like this to slow me down. :) 

Yup, the hubby has been told and he is on snuggle duty when he gets home...which he leaves the base over there in less than 72 hrs. WHOO HOO. He'll be home on the 2nd. Hopefully for a while :) 

Nope, no more living with all the issues.  We are worth having things dealt with so we can actually LIVE!

Have lots of good snuggles - they raise endorphins, which reduce pain.

Wow! You've been going through it! I have no idea how you stay so positive. But I'm grateful that you are! I swing that the recovery is speedy and as pain free as possible.
