‘Can you just slow down a little, Dan?’ Deborah Sutherland winced as her
boyfriend took a sharp turn too fast. Every time she breathed, it felt as
though she was being stabbed by a bag of knives that some kindly doctor
had left in her abdomen.
‘I’ve got to get back for the football,’ Dan muttered, as if that was any
kind of answer. Nice to know what the priority is here, she thought. Dan had
already made it clear that picking her up from the hospital was a huge
imposition. He hadn’t said it, but his manner and body language had done
that for him, without words.
So sorry that I couldn’t walk home, the day after a hysterectomy, she
thought, bracing herself as Dan made a sudden stop at traffic lights. Pain
ripped through her and she gasped involuntarily. So sorry that I didn’t catch
the bus.
Dan glanced at her.
‘You all right?’ he asked.
‘Not too bad,’ she found herself replying, and almost laughed. Not too
bad. The most British of responses.
Actually, Dan, I’m not all right. I’ve just had my uterus removed by
laser and pulled out through my vagina, was what she wanted to say. Bit
sore, if I’m honest.
All Deb wanted was to get home, right now. She was trying not to think
about how she was going to get up the stairs to bed, but she’d have to do it,
somehow. And then, hopefully, she could take more of the painkillers that
the hospital had sent her home with, and pass out for a few hours.
It was hard to think about recovery when she was in this much pain.
But, at the same time, Deb was glad that she’d had the operation. She was
excited to start living again: her life for the past few years had been
lacklustre because of her symptoms. Goodbye, constant bleeding, she
thought, as Dan turned into the end of her street and she saw her house
approach. Goodbye, eternal abdominal pain. Ta-ra, dizziness from lack of
blood. See ya, anaemia. Maybe she could start planning a holiday now –
somewhere she could wear a bikini, in a few months’ time, or even a year.
She could wear white underwear. Sleep on the bed without a towel under
her. It was the small things as much as the big ones.
Endometriosis. It affected one in ten women worldwide, apparently, and
the medical community still had no idea what caused it, or could offer any
good cure, apart from what she’d had. Hysterectomy.
That in itself had been a struggle to get. Because she was in her thirties
still, because she was unmarried – Deb failed to see how that was anyone
