Never Waste a Good Hysterectomy
Following the discovery of a large ovarian tumour, Melanie was forced to undergo radical hysterectomy surgery. The physical recovery was painful, messy and took much longer than expected. However, even more surprising was the deeper, soul-searching questions that the procedure brought to the fore.
In the process of both the physical and mental recoveries, Melanie had to come to terms with the rage, pain and grief of the hysterectomy specifically and many other losses in general, whilst investigating what she wanted to do with the second part of her life.
While Melanie’s journey is brutally honest, it is also hope giving, and insists that women’s voices be heard.
