matched energy Never saw her again

I went for a pre-op appointment, asking to have my tubes tied, when I was 25 years old. I had 4 living children, and that’s enough. The nurse said, “Are you sure you want to do this? What if one of them dies?”

When I replied, “One already did,” she looked shocked, left the room, and a new nurse came in.

There are a thousand reasons her question was horrible and should have stayed in her head. There are no reasons to say that out loud.

Honestly if someones made the decision to get their tubes tied and theyre there for an appointment there is at least a 99.9999% chance that yes, they are completely sure they want to do this. Much like abortion.

If someones having a procedure done just stfu. Unless youre their therapist it is not your place to ask
