God has another plan for me

I am posting this tonight, with a heavy heart. Yesterday my mom and I had a visit with Dr. Doerrfield. This is the 5th OB/GYN I have seen in the last 6+ years about my condition. I have been dealing with Endometriosis and Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome for a long time and had surgery back in '07 in hopes to control the situation but 2 years later it has come back and even worse this time. After a lot of thought, prayer and conversations with my family, Michael, and close friends who have dealt with the same issues. I have made a decision. I will be having a hysterectomy on Oct. 7th at Longview Regional. While I know that I am still young and have yet to have children, this is a decision I did not come to quickly. I need to have my life back, this has taken over it for way too long and I am tired of it. I want to be happy and enjoy the upcoming months. For those who do not know yet. Michael and I are getting married, we are not officially engaged yet but wedding plans are in the works and a date is set. I will announce the date when I get the ring. Please keep me and Michael in your prayers over the next couple of weeks, because this not only changes my life plan but his as well. We will just have to give our love to a child who has no one though adoption. It has always been in my mind to adopt one day and now is my chance. I am just thankful that I have a wonderful loving man in my life who just wants the best for me.
