There is nothing in the story I mentioned that would be helpful this week, except what I posted. I can share more later.... It is not a horror story, but nothing that will be any use till after they do whatever they decide to do, and they won't know any of that till they're doing your surgery (as I am sure you must know).
BTW I (and I would hope others) will also be praying for the skill and compassion of your healthcare team, top to bottom of the chain of command and esp. anyone with whom you are in contact-- so you get the BEST possible experience. I mean the total experience, not just the medical part.
I agree, keep writing, but only as it fits into periodic breaks for joyful contemplations.
[humor and visioning alert] And regarding a link you may have gotten via PM yesterday from a Catter, with an image of hands encircling-- when I saw that I saw your cervix, full of light. :~) Keep yer knees together till surgery, so it don't blind anyone from being too bright! :~)
You go, girl, and again I repeat: YOU ARE DEFINITELY UP TO THIS CHALLENGE. See you soon.
