Goodbye Womb

This coming Tuesday I will be saying farewell to my womb.  I've had enough of dealing with certain unpleasant issues (cramps which make labour look like a breeze & heavy bleeding), & other methods of trying to control them have failed.
Last Wednesday we had a farewell party at Evoke complete with a suitably decorated cake (thanks Friend D!) which we had to shield from the view of the general public until it had been ceremoniously sliced up with many howls of laughter.
My beautiful friend D also made me a card which contains the most wonderful poem she wrote:


I just love the Monty Pythonesque "Parrot sketch" references!!  (What fun having friends as warped as me!)
I'm starting to get a little nervous now as my surgery date gets closer, but I know I'll be in good hands.  Is it strange that I'm mainly worried that they'll insert the drip in my hand in a manner which won't allow me to knit?  Wish me luck!
