I have spent all of today in the hospital with my wife, Morgan.
Today she had surgery that confirmed and removed severe endometriosis, a condition where uterus tissue grows outside the uterus, causing severe pelvic pain and infertility.
Despite suspecting she has had this condition for almost as long as I’ve known her, and after years of medical gaslighting, she finally found a doctor who would book her in for laparoscopic surgery needed at the end of last year, and completed today. It turns out this is one of the most misdiagnosed conditions women can have (despite it being fairly common) and unless you fight for that surgery, you will likely never be taken seriously.
If you or anyone you know feels they relate to endometriosis symptoms, I really encourage you to push for an official diagnosis - particularly as this condition can worsen over time. Morgan spent years in pain, and we lost £10,000’s in IVF costs for “unexplained infertility” when the answer was explainable all along.
But mostly I just wanted to post this because I’m so bloody proud of her fight, and being so brave spending the entire afternoon in the operating theatre today. Well done Morgan, maximum bonus points for you! 👏🏼
@bbuk casting team have engineered the worst series imaginable. Within 2 weeks we’ve had politics overload, 1 person getting removed, the house is divided, tasks are rubbish and it’s not even good tele 🤣
I only tune in now to hear Richards one liners while reading his Psalms.
Big Brother showing the Caroline footage last night which was vile and now gatekeeping the footage that got George kick off the show?
What kind of weird HR department do they have? #BBUK
