Dilation

Shortly after my failed surgery in 2000, my surgeon encouraged me to begin vaginal dilation therapy since he said I should never try to have surgery again. I was 14, yet to have a boyfriend, sex nowhere on the radar, and was terrified after trying to dilate for the first time. It was painful, uncomfortable and truthfully…embarrassing.  So I hid the dilators in the closet and went on with my life.

Path to Finding My beloved

I was 17, Lee was 19. It was December 2002.
It was Love at first chat.
Soul mates at first glance.

I am a wombless wife...

I am a 25 year old wombless wife. 

After struggling with consistent abdominal pain for over 10 years fighting to keep my womb, I am now a wombless wife.

After dying and being resusitated twice on an operating table I am now a wombless wife.

After being in a coma for over 14 days at the age of 13, and spending countless days in the hospital and various doctor's office, I am now a wombless wife.

After two failed corrective surgeries and a 6 hour hysterectomy, I am now a wombless wife.

I am a wombless wife.


I have a supportive husband, that I have been married to for 3 years, together for 8 years, and I am a wombless wife.

I have a supportive family, including an older sister willing to be my gestational surrogate, I am still a wombless wife.

I am a ready and willing mother...but I am a wombless wife.
