Some important news
It's been a little over a month since my last update. I miss everyone so much and this has been very difficult but there have been some pretty big things happening and that's why I have been pretty non-existent.

Aside from the financial troubles, I'm still struggling but it's better than it was awhile back, my health has taken a couple turns for the worse but I seem to be getting a few more answers. I have a suspicious mass that is very large that has take over one of my ovaries threatening to cut off blood supply. They are concerned that it is a cancerous tumor and I have to have pretty major surgery in a couple weeks to have it removed and tested to make sure I am cancer free. I am very young and this is very frightening to me. I'm on a lot of pills and hormones and it has made me a bit of an emotional wreck.

On top of that I have been bleeding continuously for 3 months and paralyzed with abdominal pain. After numerous ultrasounds, a test finally revealed that the cause is in my uterus and I have to have a piece of it removed. I'm seeing some pretty specialized doctors and they say that this is the only way I will stop bleeding. They're going to do that procedure at the same time as removal of the other thing, but there will be two different incisions.

There's been some other health stuff going on and I just have not been feeling well at all. I've been in the hospital three times recently and am just on a ton of medications and painkillers which makes me feel less than stellar.

I am really hoping that this surgery goes well and I stop bleeding so I can get back to my baby (this site). I keep the stack of orders I still have as a reminder and motivation that I need to get through this. I miss being so detached, medicated and looking like a flake, cause that's not me. It's also not so peachy having blood coming out of your vajay-jay 24/7 for months and there's nothing you can do about it. :( You all have been like a family to my and I'm not taking off so fast.

My email is completely backed up, but I'm going to try to go through it a bit (there's a few thousand emails in there- yikes!). My pre-op is the first week of February and as soon as I can figure out my recovery time I'll keep you updated. Thank you for your thoughts and prayers. You guys are what keeps me going!

Love,
Mackenzie
