Morgan

I have spent all of today in the hospital with my wife, Morgan. Today she had surgery that confirmed and removed severe endometriosis, a condition where uterus tissue grows outside the uterus, causing severe pelvic pain and infertility. Despite suspecting she has had this condition for almost as long as I’ve known her, and after years of medical gaslighting, she finally found a doctor who would book her in for laparoscopic surgery needed at the end of last year, and completed today. It turns out this is one of the most misdiagnosed conditions women can have (despite it being fairly common) and unless you fight for that surgery, you will likely never be taken seriously. If you or anyone you know feels they relate to endometriosis symptoms, I really encourage you to push for an official diagnosis - particularly as this condition can worsen over time. Morgan spent years in pain, and we lost £10,000’s in IVF costs for “unexplained infertility” when the answer was explainable all along. But mostly I just wanted to post this because I’m so bloody proud of her fight, and being so brave spending the entire afternoon in the operating theatre today. Well done Morgan, maximum bonus points for you! 👏🏼

Happy birthday to @MrsFPLMate! 🎈💕

Sorry guys, have to cancel the stream tonight. Not in a good head space. Logging out for a bit. Please try to remember that content creators are humans too before you post 🙏🏼💜

Stream tonight is cancelled, not feeling up to it. It’s a shame in 2023 the same people who preach about mental health will only be kind on their own terms. Whether you want to disguise it as friendly banter or not, words have impact, and jokes can go too far.
