Chuck and I make a decision. Waiting until I hit menopause was no longer an option – my quality of life was adversely affected and therefore, Chuck's quality of life was adversely affected. We decide the best option is to have my uterus taken out. I schedule a visit with my OB/GYN and get everything scheduled.
I then call my mom who is upset and disappointed. I know she wants me to have children and I understand her upset. Chuck and I had already resolved the emotional impact of children/no children for ourselves. Somehow, I have known that I would not be able to bear a child and so did he…the Universe has us both helping others heal/succeed in their lives…this is what fulfills us in our life's work.
My mother takes some time and says "It is God's plan, this is supposed to be"; who are we to question that?
The mental preparation for the surgery begins. We don't give it much thought except for the occasional doubt 'Am I doing the right thing? Should I go through with this?"
The answer is…..YES resoundingly, YES.
