I don't know what her health problem is. If it is a miscarriage, then she might need a procedure to finish it. If it is fibroid tumors that are benign (very common in women and they cause heavy periods) it is not by any means emergency surgery. There are many approaches besides hysterectomy. In fact, hysterectomies are hardly done anymore because of the other less intrusive options. She might need a second opinion. And since heavy bleeding ends with menopause, in many cases women just put up with the heavy bleeding until they reach menopause.
She can't get pregnant so that's not an issue. I recall that her mom had some kind of polyp years ago but I don't think it's anything terrible. It's not an emergency, the meds they gave her stopped the excessive bleeding. She is overreacting, as usual, attaching significance to anything and everything her doctor says without putting it in context..
And she is always a B*tch during her cycle. I just don't want to deal with her any more. And she doesn't want to take responsibility for OUR FAMILIES financials, she just wants to 'get out from under Frank'. Could it be any more clear to me? She pretty much spelled it out.
