Our prayers were answered!!!

My wife, Bev, had a total hysterectomy this past Monday at St. Joseph's Hospital in Marshfield, WI. The reason for the surgery was that they found cancerous cells during a routine pelvic exam. Thankfully, the cancer was localized in the uterus only, so this means no radiation, or chemo. St. Joseph's is part of Ministry Healthcare, which is world renowned. This just proves once again that routine exams can be lifesavers.

That IS great news! I wish a speedy recovery for both you and your wife. I know you probably had a lot of worry until this surgery was completed. Best wishes for continued good health!

Congrats!

I am so happy for both of you. The stress of waiting to know takes a toll on anyone involved, not just the patient.

May you have many more years together!

A very speedy recovery....

...my mother had a full hysterectomy in 2005. The uterus can collapse and this is what started down my mothers need...

BUT, compared to when my gran had one in the 1950's and was flat on her back for weeks and weeks, mum was up and out of bed on day 3...

AND...She hasn't felt this good for 20yrs she is now of the opinion that it should be compulsory at 50!
