One Ovary Down.One To Go‪.‬

Find out what happens when you are dealing with fibroids and you have little money and no health insurance to deal with it. At some point something has to give. You've gone to the doc and the box twice in one year for pain in your right side. Everyone seems to think you have one of two things: kidney stones or your appendix might be ready to blow. They send you on your way with a few pain meds and say if the pain continues you should go to the emergency room. A third time that year you find yourself at the doctor but this time they send you straight to the emergency. The do an ultra sound to find out what's going on. Instead of it being an appendix they can't seem to find your uterus. That doesn't sound right? Come to find out you have three massive fibroids and your right ovary is getting ready to rupture because the blood flow to it has been cut off. This requires emergency surgery on a Saturday and you may not see next week if it doesn't happen. The fun doesn't stop there. Your parents are flying in for your emergency surgery and they're going to meet someone they've never met before.
