I will definitely keep you in my prayers!
I suffer from endometriosis that is approaching stage 3 and spreading to my colon. They have told me that I will need surgery but that it won’t guarantee healing or that the pain will go away. I have been told it’s needed but they need to freeze my ovaries for 6 months, put me in to menopause at 28, then reintroduce the right hormones and it may take awhile for my body to feel like my own again. My doctor had almost convinced me to come up with the 10,000 needed when her words stopped me dead. “It will come back. It may be months, it may be years, but this is just a temporary fix and I can’t promise it will take your pain away.” I talked to my family and the man who I love and has chosen to stand by me as I go through this and decided to hold off. I didn’t want to damage any risk of being able to have children. Your story made my heart swell up and I cried for her. For you. I pray that her pain goes away. I pray that the Lord guides the hands of all the doctors she comes in to contact with and that she recovers quickly and that this time it will last. I have hope for you guys.
