Since I was terrified of being under general anesthesia, if I could have convinced them to take out my uterus at the same time, I'd have jumped at the opportunity. I think I knew even then that I was likely to adopt, and I certainly wouldn't have missed all the trouble it's given me since then. 
I really wonder what She was thinking, sometimes! |
No kidding. If She exists, She is out of her tiny freaking mind.

Now, you jest, but I did have them take out and rebuild my breasts (cancer), remove my uterus (cancer) and do a tummy-tuck, and pull a few bits out of my intestines (cancer) all at one go. Oncologists were there, plastic surgeons were there, they all had one shot while they had me up on the rack, and then they wrapped me up like a mummy and let me alone to heal.
No chemo, no radiation, just cut, rearrange things as necessary, sew me up and send me home.
