Today is my one year anniversary of my Hysterectomy. It’s almost as surreal to say that as it was last year when it was happening. In so many ways, it’s hard to believe it’s been a year already. But in just as many ways, it feels like so much longer ago.<\/p>\n

I have never been through anything harder. And yet, in a lot of ways, I have to say I surprised myself. I never thought I was strong enough to endure something like this. And though it was hard – it was damned<\/i> hard – I not only made it through, but I truly believe I’m better off today then I was a year ago.<\/p>\n

I couldn’t decided if I wanted to wax poetic about the past year and where this journey has taken me, or if I wanted to fill it with remembrances and experiences, or if I should offer tips and advice for someone else going through this. In the end, I just feel at a loss for writing up any of that and instead, will leave you with a year of progress instead.<\/p>\n

In this case, I think the pictures help tell the past year very well. I’ll write about the other aspects another day. For today, here’s the past year.<\/p>\n
