Pain and Tears

I've got belly button pain still. There is a lump under the skin that is a tiny bit tender to the touch but due to the amount of work that Dr. Albee did, I'm not surprised at all. I did have alot of work done on July 21st.

God, has it only been that long???? It seems like an eternity ago right now...an eternity. Did I really have a 7 hour surgery??? Wow!!!!! Ask me on the days (or moments) when I'm feeling blue and I'll tell you that it was just yesterday that I had my uterus taken out of my body.

I still haven't read the operative report yet...that will take some time. I still cry over the loss of my organs. I mourn the loss of the children I couldn't conceive and carry within my own womb.

My current children are not and should not be used fill the void that I experienced by infertility because of having endo and adeno. I don't cry in front of them regarding the loss of my organs or anything else for that matter. It's an adult problem and an adult is handling it. I would never place my adult problems on my children and expect them to fill the role of the adult.

I know that the pain (both physical and emotional) will hopefully subside in time. All I need from you, my readers, right now is the understanding, the friendship, and support as I go through this.
