Upcoming surgery better equal fewer lbs. on the scale

Okay, so I never have smoked, but other than that we look a lot alike. After having a softball size cyst removed from my left ovary, a little tumor on my right I really thought I would have lost at least a little weight. But, no. None.

So, with my second surgery approaching quickly (November 10th), but not quick enough because I have been in severe pain. I am okay as long as I don't move which is really hard to do when you have a 15, 6, and very active 3 year old. This time I am saying goodbye to my uterus and it better weight something.  I keep telling Stephan that I will be fine and I would be okay even if I have cancer. I told him a few of the benefits: weight loss, my hair could come back in thicker and a different color. I am keeping a positive attitude which is exactly what my mom would want me to do. I also let him know that if I lost my hair I would be getting two eyes tattooed on the back of my head and yes, I am very serious.

My mom was so awesome. One of the funniest things she did when she was going through chemo and had her colostomy was put stickers of kids swimming on her bag when she went to her Doctors appointment. It made them both laugh and everyone who hears about her doing that laughs. My mom was so funny and caring!

Back to surgery. The possible third surgery in the series is the one I don't want to have. So, I am praying that the second one goes great; I am pain free and free of everything else. Thanks for listening, hope you enjoy my picture and I love you so very much and miss you so very much Mommy Dearest. That was one of our favorite movies to watch and we use to call her that in public, then she would threaten to beat us with a wire hanger. Wow, we sound like such a weird family! Aren't we all?
