@naturegirl5 I'm really happy to connect with others on here, and I think it is very helpful.. Come to think of it.I don't even know how I found it but i'm really happy that I did.. I think, as far as the hysterectomy, it comes with a lot of physical changes and sometimes emotions get out of control- a little. Hormones are off. I always wanted children and I think the hysterectomy, just solidified that I will never have them.. That's something i've had to work through and I'll continue to work through, I believe.. I still struggle some with the fact that the mass was there and I didn't know it was there for a while.. But I do have supportive people in my life, and I do have people I can talk to. Maybe just accepting the fact that life isn't exactly how you want it all the time... I've always known that, but sometimes it hits you the wrong way. Thanks for reaching out
