undergoing a hysterectomy for benign tumors, inomyomata they are called.
I
have been trying to rationalize the fear and one of the first things
that I had to swallow was the violation of my skin, my belly which is
flawless now, as flawless the belly of a 56 year old woman can be but
still unscarred. And then it is the tearing away of organs which have
been so vital to my being a mother.
My mind is kind of numb at the moment and I can't write or explain any better what is happening to me. In my mind's eye I keep seeing images of my uterus as it appeared in the magnetic tomography and the bulbs, pods and seeds which appear in my drawings are an attempt to illustrate my womb.
