Update on Charlotte!

Thank you all for praying for Charlotte! She just sent me an update:

Hi Kate, just wanted to give you an update – surgery went well and I’m home now and okay, just dealing with some pain. He was able to remove over 95% of the endometriosis so that’s really great and encouraging – should mean no/significantly less pain in the future. It was a bit more extensive, it was in the intestines and other areas so I’ve got some stitches internally. One of the first things I asked when I woke up was if he thinks I will be able to have children and he gave an enthusiastic and immediate “yes” (though of course nothing is guaranteed and we won’t know until I am actively trying). This was wonderful news because I was more concerned about fertility maybe even than pain. Just wanted to say thank you so much for the prayers, and your readers for their prayers as well!! They’ve carried me through!! I’m looking at a bit of a painful recovery, but I’m so hopeful that many/most of my chronic issues are resolved now. Thank you so much!!! And please tell all I said thank you!!

Isn’t this wonderful news?! I’m so happy for Charlotte!! Please continue to keep her in your prayers as she recovers! ❤ ❤ ❤

  1. Catching up! Prayers for a good recovery… take it easy and let yourself fully heal! I used to work as a Creighton FCP and am all too familiar with how endo can affect your health as well as the surgical aspects… SO happy her surgeon feels optimistic about future babies ❤

  2. I didn’t get around to commenting yesterday but Charlotte I offered up my middle-of-the-night feeding of my baby for you, specifically for the intention that you could have kids / that this would be you someday. It’s wonderful to hear this positive update! Good luck with recovery.
