Through The Land of Hyster Book
Hi Ladies,
I just finished Kathy's book. I recommend it to all the "Ladies in Waiting" and "Princesses" too. It really answered any unanswered questions that I had. It made me feel so much better about what I am about to go through. Yup, I am scared to death, more afraid than when I had spinal reconstuction and fusion and faced possible paralysis. I don't know why. Is it because they are removing a part of me? You know, the womanhood thing? Eventhough I can't have children due to my back and meds anyway... I just don't get it.
Anyway. Kathy's book made me feel much better. I think I am ready for the big day, as scared as I am!
Thanks for listening.
Maria

Yes, I agree, it's a great book and helped reassure me too.
What you describe feeling seems to be fairly normal, many of us have had the same. I think it's like you said - having a body part removed is scary. You'll be in my prayers too.
