Once upon a time not so very long ago there was a damsel in distress trapped my awful cramping and bleeding. Off to doctor to docto, to doctor she would go full of woe. Each doctor told her it was nothing, take some pain medicine, have a baby, it will self correct. The years go by, the pain continues, the bleeding worsens, and emergency room visits become the norm.

Finally the damsel meets her Prince, they marry and try to have babies. Eventually they are told you cannot have the biological baby of your dreams; you have been selected to have babies by other special means. The damsel finds out that their baby has been born and is ready to come home at the same time she finds out the true cause of her infertility. Endometriosis has invaded and made it's presence overwhelmingly known. Over the next 5 years the prince and the damsel take care of their family and work on treatments for the Endo. At the end of the 5 years the Prince can no longer make the damsel comfortable and she is in way too much pain to care for her now growing family. So it is with great surprise and relief that they agree it's time for the hysterectomy. The Prince cares for the children and prepares for his damsel in distress to become the Princess she always deserved to be.

The damsel says goodbye to her family and the prince takes her to the castle for her day of reckoning. A few hours later the damsel awakens in recovery and begins her new life as a Princess. The beginning is slow and bleak and is full of pain, nausea, and weekness. As the days go by the nurses help the Princess to flourish and regain her strength so she can have a life of happily ever after. The castle stay was not with out pain, or troubles (vomiting and dehydration and troubles with the IV) but the day finally arrives that the Prince comes and takes the Princess away in his carriage and she begins her new life Happily Every After!

They return home to their children and the Princess continues to recover and get strong. It won't be long before she is spreading her wings and living the normal life that she has always dreamed!

Blessings to all!!
