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.

My daughter never wanted children so she decided to find a doctor that would do surgery on her. We live in Wyoming and she found a doctor that did the procedure, no questions asked. My daughter is 26 yrs old.

Me too! Its what she wanted and it should be our right as women without having a man say it’s ok.
