angels...From: Stephanie (anonymous@obgyn.net)Wed Oct 5 10:04:39 2005
I just have to let out a sigh of relief I guess. You all certainly understand as we are all going through our own versions of hades, but I have found it to be difficult to talk to others around me of my pain, physically and emotionally, as so many of you have expressed here. I am alone in my battle as I am still single and this does not help I think - although many of you have expressed the lack of support from your significant others (and maybe that's a whole lot worse than going it alone...). However, yesterday the nurse finally called me back about talking about a date for a hysterectomy surgery. She was an angel, truly... When I told her it was time, but I still want a family, and I'm adopted so yes I know that's an option, she immediately said well I understand why you'd want a child of your own, the blood ties, etc (she said it so much better!) - she made me cry (which made her think I wasn't ready for this decision). I cried though because she is the first person to truly understand what this decision is costing me. Other people around me say just get it and be done with it, there's always adoption. True, but they don't understand! (and yes, speaking from experience, adoption is a wonderful option) Granted they want me to be out of this pain, but they don't get it, she did. What a relief! She thinks she did not help me, but truly she did... I'm sorry, I can't get this jumble of emotions out exactly the way I had hoped, but I'm sure you guys understand. I just had to get it out somehow how much of an impact this truly kind and compassionate angel made on me, simply for understanding my emotional pain... Thanks for listening, Stephanie
