This story was so captivating I had to read all the way to the bottom. You are a fantastic storyteller. I was pulled in, I was enchanted by her wobbling vascularture, her sympathetic sisterhood. Like a phoenix rises from the ashes, so does the womb of all creation, woman.
This was wonderful. Before I was taken in for mine (total abdominal hysterectomy; we don’t need no stinkin’ ovaries) I was required to read a wad of disclaimers, check Y/N boxes, and sign pages. So hep me Gawd, one of the boxes I had to check was “I understand that this procedure may cause sterility. “
My reaction was whoops of eye watering laughter. I told the nurse that I wasn’t worried about sterility. I was worried about still being fertile, and if after all the cutting, stapling and healing I got preggers, I was suing the pee-waddling shit out of the GYN. Thankfully, it never came to pass.
I love Chris Evans. Hilarious blog post. Really enjoyed it!
Since the USA is turning into Gilead and I've never wanted children and will never have them, and ovarian cancer runs in my family, I asked a couple doctors, females too, still won't give me a hysterectomy. They hate birth control too, so I guess my IUD is killing babies every month. They want abortions to decrease but support nothing that actually reduces them like education, birth control and access to even basic womens health.
If every time a bell rings an angel gets their wings, then after every hysterectomy a uterus gets glass of sancerre and can marry the Hollywood a-lister of their choice. Perfect.
