This blog will be updated quite a bit since it tells the story of my journey through Endometriosis, surgeries, and hope for those who suffer. I welcome followers, comments and questions. If you suffer from Endo or have a loved one who does, check back often to follow my story and understand what it is like to have Endometriosis.

It's been 7 1/2 Weeks Since My Hysterectomy and Bladder Surgery
I am happy to say that I no loner am suffering with bladder issues! You can tell me all the jokes you like, and I will not laugh and take off running to change my pants ;) I am also very fortunate that my pain is gone. I still have a pressure feeling that I will not miss when it decides to leave me. The exhaustion is immense still. People ask how i feel or if I am glad that I had it, the answer is yes, I am glad to have had these procedures performed and I do feel a lot better. It will be nice to be 100% again, and I am not there yet. I will continue to research the disease and try to find a way to have a support group one day. I need all of my strength for that. For now I will continue to write mt book and look for an agent who feels that Endo Awareness is as important as I do. To date I have only contacted 12 agents. I will let the Holidays come and go, then pursue it more. My book WILL be out in the world one way or another. For those who are interested in my journey to be an author, I have a blog about that that you can access from this page. I hope that all of you who celebrate Christmas have a great one! XX

Support Groups?
I noticed that my area does not have a support group for Endo Sufferers. I would like to start one in the future, after I feel well and have the time to devote to it. There is so little awareness in the world and so many sufferers. Many of us are not diagnosed properly and are told the issue is in our head. Now I am not to say that I am not a bit dafy at times but...I can attest to the fact that this condition is and was not in my head. It was real. I have many scars to prove it! Eleven external and countless internal scars decorate me and my battle is not fought alone by any stretch of the imagination.
Endo-Warriors and Survivors all over the world are fighting to make a change.It is my dream to set up a foundation to help people who want to attend college and have Endometriosis. The great issue is cash at this point. There is so much that needs to be done and if we work at it we will make a difference one by one.
