Two children by 26, Hysterectomy at 27.
The A Word
11/15/21 • 5 min
I wrote this in 2019 after my hysterectomy, it was my way of letting out the things I was feeling at the time, reflecting on what had happened and also being a voice for other women in the same situation as me. It is frank and honest, as well as being straight to the point and unapologetic. I hope you like it.

All thoughts and opinions are entirely my own! I hope that you can relate to some of the points I make here, I would love to hear your thoughts too.
