Ahhh, Fibroid Relief…At Last

Viewing the road that lead(s) one to an end goal can be enlightening AND jarring…but for darn sure, full of teachable moments. And so, connecting all of the rutted, as-well-as, all of the smooth dots that my body’s tires rolled over ‘n over across one long  fibroided super-highway…I am finally home in the parking lot of gratitude!

The Proof is in the Pudding

Research continues to demonstrate that focused ultrasound is a viable and minimally invasive alternative to traditional treatments, such as hysterectomy, for uterine fibroids. We at Fibroid Relief are BIG fans of focused ultrasound and encourage you to learn more about this treatment option.

Team Work

This past week I had the distinct pleasure and honor to speak with one of the finest people I have ever met…who, just so happens, is also my Focused Ultrasound radiologist/doctor. After our conversation, I just sat in my chair daydreaming. My thoughts took me to the first time that Dr. LeBlang and I met. [...]

The Night Before F U S

‘Twas the night before FUS, when all thro’ our house,

My clothes were laid out with the utmost of care,

And, me, mamma in her [...]

When Is Enough…Enough?

With front page headlines, news-talk radio shows, and the blog-o-sphere on constant-chatter-mode opining incessantly about the state of our health care system, honestly, I know full well you don’t want to read yet another blathering-bloggers bunch of  bull…but…

Womb With A View

Free at last, free at last, oh goody this gal is free at last!
Those words, and that exact sentiment was the rhythmic jingle that hummed in my head on that glorious day when I sold my retail business. YIPEEEE…for twelve years I owned and ran the daily operations of a gourmet food and gift shop( [...]

Letting Go

Let’s face it, even with the most extreme type-A, control freak-a-zoid personality (ahem, you talkin’ to me?) there are occassions that we must surrender; letting others take the reigns from our tightly clenched hands. Contemplating  and analyzing your daily everyday coming-n-going, in order to  merely exist, inherently requires one to relinquish control–a web of cooperation means [...]

Ahhhh….relief.
