Guest guest Posted May 16, 2004 Report Share Posted May 16, 2004 : Yes, until you brought this to our attention, one would have presumed that the suffering of fibroidal women had gone unnoticed by the Vatican. :-) As for becoming a Saint, from what I know--one has to be dead first to be even nominated! But--AMAZINGLY--- I'm very happy to report that AT LEAST ONE Lady of our List has apparently already achieved sainthood, while still very much ALIVE !!!......(but recovering from the ravages of a bad surgery, bad doctors, insensitive friends, adverse effects of Lupron, anemia, and a slew of other ailments and afflictions!!!) That Saint in question is none other than listmember e, or rather " St. e " -- and, considering what she suffered through....... Who more deserving of this honor?!! I was pleased to see that they've even gone and dedicated a hospital--especially for mothers and children-- in e's honor in Montreal--named,....what else? " Hôpital Sainte-e. " http://www.hsj.qc.ca/ Not too shabby for a fellow Fibroidian, huh?! -Roma P.S. JUST TO REASSURE all the pregnant LOL and set the record straight: From what I can tell, this blessed woman, Betretta Molla, did not actually die from causes related to her fibroid during her pregnancy. NO. The cause of death was actually INFECTION. (Maybe sepsis?) Once again, it's tempting to blame fibroids for everything that goes wrong with our health. But in this case, the probable culprits were microorganisms introduced during labor and delivery, leading to infection and, sepsis, and ultimately, her death. NOT THE FIBROID!!!

But, it should give us hope that all our pain and suffering is not For Naught! From today's www.CNN.com reporting . . . " VATICAN CITY (AP) -- Pope II named six new saints Sunday, including a woman who became a symbol for abortion opponents because she refused to end her pregnancy despite warnings that it could kill her. The Vatican has long championed the case of Beretta Molla, an Italian pediatrician who died in 1962 at the age of 39 -- a week after giving birth to her fourth child. Doctors had told her it was dangerous to proceed with the pregnancy because she had a tumor in her uterus, but she insisted on carrying the baby to term. In proclaiming her a saint, praised her " extreme sacrifice " and her simple but profound message. " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 17, 2004 Report Share Posted May 17, 2004 Oh man Roma I have no wish to be a saint You have to DIE first I fought way to hard to keep the idiot from killing me to be a saint Not to mention I am still pursueing his butt across state lines to see that his record reflects his " skills " I received information on Friday from Madigan's office on how to enter a complaint and where (she is the IL ag) Now I am wondering if I can put the facts in an ad for one of the Chicago papers. I need to check prices etc. Want to bet the first Doc wishes I had died when he did his little placebo myo and lied to me.
