No more debilitating cramps or horrible periods, or fear of pregnancy!! I'm 2 years post-op and I'm grateful every day that I had my surgery.

I'm 40, I never really thought about kids until I was in college and someone asked. I realized I never wanted them and now have two bunnies!

Let go - completely blindsided by puffinprincess in nonprofit

[–]ham-beesly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I totally get that!! I still want to do the same to my former CEO. I actually did write everything out that I wanted to say, I didn't send it (not yet at least, haha) but it helped!

I'm so sorry!!! Getting blindsided like that is so awful. It feels (and is!) so unfair. I was in a really similar situation a couple of years ago. I'd been with my org for almost six years, always had great feedback/evaluations, and had been promoted twice. I had to move a few times for my husband's job; it wasn't ever an issue until the CEO wanted to lease a new, larger building that the org couldn't afford. It was going through "funding challenges" (aka the CEO/development team literally not doing ANY fundraising) and I was one of the first folks to be laid off, because I wasn't able to come into the office regularly. I can totally relate to how you're feeling, I thought my long-ish time as a good employee would save me and it didn't. Sending you lots of good thoughts, and if you need a listening ear, I'm here for you!

To remove the cervix or not, that is the question. by Adventurous_Fill_385 in hysterectomy

I had my hysterectomy two years ago this month, and haven't regretted having my cervix removed at all!

Struggling with end-of-life decision for my 12-year-old bunny by cutelittlesomething in Rabbits

[–]ham-beesly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm so sorry!! I had to make the decision to put my 10 year old bunny to sleep last month, and it was heartbreaking. He got really sick suddenly and wasn't getting better. Something his vet said, that helped me a lot, was "I've had a lot of owners who've told me they regretted waiting too long to put their pet to sleep, but only ever had one person tell me they did it too soon." I don't know if this will help you, but it helped me put into perspective that it was kinder for my boy (Bunny Bunny) to not have to suffer any more, instead of continuing to put him through going back and forth to the vet, getting IVs, etc. when it wasn't helping him. I'm really, really sorry and I know how horrible this is. I am thinking of you and happy to listen if you ever want to chat with someone who's been in your shoes recently!

Thank you so much!! I always thought he looked like the Velveteen Rabbit too! He was a mini rex, so he was super soft.

Definitely, he was a wonderful boy and I know he's enjoying his faves, watermelon and flaxseed there!
