Op On Tuesday
I am really worried about my op on Tuesdy.I have a prolapsed womb which needs to be removed also the uterine walls need to be repaired. I rang the hospital to let them know that I'd changed my doctor and also to see how close I was to the top of the list (I was told last November that I'd have to wait a year).The consultants receptionist asked if she could make me an offer she said they had a space for surgery on the 17 April would I like to come in .I wasn't expecting her to say that and I was shocked... I still am .It only gave me a week to get things in order I was half way through decorating my lounge so I went mad to finish it,my washing pile was enormous,my husband is just as shocked as I am and my four children haven't had chance for me to prepare them. The thing I'm having a lot of trouble with is the fact that I would have loved to have another baby(you probably thing I am mad).I keep telling myself that I have four wonderful children a girl aged 8, 3 boys aged 6,3,2. I so wanted another girl. We are both Christians and I know the Lord will help and guide me through these times I ask for your prayers as well .I feel a lot better now I have said all this . God Bless . Dawn

Op On Tuesday
Welcome to Hyster Sisters, Dawn. It's the right place to get both information and support.
It's amazing how fast things can move, just when you least expect it. That's the way it was when I had arthroscopic surgery in 1985: was told I'd have to wait several months, then was booked inside of two weeks: had to cancel plans for my birthday party
The bright side: the wait is almost over. Soon you will be on the other side, looking back on all this, well on your way to recovery.
In the meantime, feel free to check the pull-down menus at the bottom of the Hyster Sisters Home Page. Visit the chat room where you can meet other Ladies in Waiting and Post Op Princesses. Read the Princesses Tell their Stories board: the positive and even the not-so-positive stories helped me a lot when I was waiting for my surgery.
Visit us as often as you need and ask all the questions you need to ask.
Good luck.

Please try not to worry! The worrying was the worse part for me. I had my surgery on Mon 4-9 and I am OK. Some mild pain the past two days but MD says that is normal.It sounds like you have had a beautiful family. God has blessed you 4 times. Take care. I am sure your 8 year old little girl will love playing nurse to you and little Mom to her brothers. This site is really a blessing, the ladies here help to keep you calm in the moments that you feel like you can't stand the wait any more. It's going to be OK....

Hi, Dawn,
I'll be saying a special prayer for you on your surgery date.
April 17 was my Mom's birthday. She was a most special lady and I'll wish blessings for you on that day.
Take care. Let us know how you're doing!
Dianne

Get out a journal and dedicate a few pages to each of your children. Write down every wonderful thing that each of them does and says as well as the blessings each of them gives to you. You will undoubedtly fill many pages.
There are ladies having their surgeries who cannot fill any pages.
Try thinking in a more positive way about the four awesome blessings you already have.
Hugs,
Miranda
