Hi all!
I'm friends with girlscandrum (tiffany) offline - well through text, facebook etc as I am in Australia and she is in America :)

As you all know she had her hysterectomy on the 30th. She sent me a message at 10.30pm last night to say she was on her way to the hospital... so I take it it was AM in the US where she is! She messaged me again at 830am this morning to tell me she is out, they took both her ovaries as well as the endo had spread so she had a complete hysterectomy. I just recieved another message just then, she told me she's recovering, she's had a few anxiety attacks (big shock to the body im sure) but she is doing well other then some pain.
She told me it's fine to update you all :)

I hope you all take comfort in knowing she is recovering and it went well. Send hugs and speedy recovery thoughts!

Thanks so much, everyone, for all of your support and prayers! And thanks taters, for updating everyone! I haven't had internet and didn't want anyone to be concerned that it went badly or anything. I'm doing so much better than expected (especially since they couldn't save any ovaries)! I'll write a good, long journal about it sometime soon. I know a few people are interested in details, since a hysterectomy is what some of you are facing. Anyway, thanks again so much!! Much love to you all!!
