Hey there 🩷 I hope you’re doing well 😊 I’m doing pretty okay myself, all things considered.
Last week I had an appointment with my gynecologist, and he was supposed to have already consulted with his colleagues… but something went wrong and that consultation hadn’t actually happened yet. Unfortunately. But we still talked about the surgery, and he said he fully supports my decision. He also seems very confident about everything!
He even mentioned that the waiting time for the surgery is about three months. So I looked over at my boyfriend and said a little surprised “Maybe my uterus will already be gone before my birthday.” Then the gynecologist checked his screen to see when my birthday is (spoiler: August), and he said there’s a good chance that it actually will be… 😱 #holyshit
I’m still kind of speechless about it.
Because that consultation with his colleagues has happened now, but I won’t hear the outcome until the second week of April… so it’s still a bit of a waiting game. But it’s basically almost certain at this point.
That same day, we also had the second and final appointment with the psychologist, and she agrees with my decision to have a hysterectomy—just like her colleagues do.
She said I’ve really thought everything through carefully and that I’ve done a lot of research, so she doesn’t expect me to regret it 👏🏼
It honestly feels surreal. I spent years dealing with another hospital, and now I’ve seen this specialist just four (!) times and it’s already approved—my uterus is going to be removed… I’m still amazed.
After years of pain and mood swings, I finally feel heard… I’m so incredibly grateful!
But on a different note—I think I mentioned this before—I’m going to translate my book into English myself. I’m planning to do that upcoming month (April), and I also want to submit it to a British/American publisher that same month.
One actually randomly came my way, sooo 🤩
AND I HAVE CHEVY NEWS! It’s still a bit early to share all the details, but the first steps have been taken to move the Chevy into our own garage at home! 🥹
And my chassis too, of course. I can finally start working on it again—it’s felt like forever since I’ve been able to do anything 😅
So all in all, there are a lot of good things coming up, and I’m really excited about it! Even though I know my health can change at any moment, I still feel really happy right now 😁
Thanks for reading 🩷
