Oh Jo. Hugs for you, Shayne, Abla, and Wally. You are making the kindest decision, but absolutely heartbreaking.

Vets are amazing. Fingers and toes crossed.
Oh Jock. Big hugs for you and your mum. I hope things go well.
Knowing how hard my gynae, another Epworth endo specialist, fought to keep my ovaries, even the tiniest bits that were left after multiple endometriomas, I'm astonished that they'd be removed at 25. Mine are gone now, thanks to the heightened risk that endo + family history bring of ovarian cancer.
I worry with reporting of cases like this that women in my situation will continue to be dismissed. Endo is a bastard of a disease. I had hope that things had improved from the 90βs & β00 when my first 3 ops were done. I know I was lucky to find someone who listened. A breach in trust is devastating
This has rattled me, after multiple endo surgeries & finally a hysterectomy last year. Trust in your specialist is so critical.
Negative histology on my first 2 surgeries, yet symptoms remained. 3rd found invasive endo buried in my pelvic wall. 10 years to find what was always there. Damage done.
I hope the anaesthesia induced dreams are filled with birds and auroras, and the post op pain management is brilliant. Go well, Sandy.

You are a legend!
I'll miss Jon Kudelka @kudelka.bsky.social

Oh no. I'd noticed he'd stopped posting and was worried this was coming.
Finished watching it a week ago. I donβt know why it took me so long to discover it. It was brilliant.
Precisely!
No wombats?
Seems like once a house lamb, the trust and love never truly fades.
The sky is pink. About to go and see what we seeβ¦.
Why am I never in the right spot?!?!
That was an excellent thread from @musicologyduck.bsky.social
Some of those photos you're reposting are crazy amazing, Sandy! Let's hope it holds π€
This is a great initiative.

Have lots of chat, and lots of hugs. Leave nothing unsaid. Sending you and your mum best wishes from the other side of the world x
An, as always, thank you for amplifying these messages. Particularly when thereβs no official postings here
Three hours in - hoping your mum is doing ok, and youβve managed to get some moments of rest.
Snapshot of an X post from @VicEmergency. "If you see +61 444 444 444 pop up on your phone, it's important you do not block it. This phone number is linked to Emergency Alert which emergency services use to warn people in a defined area about current emergencies." This message is followed by a visualisation of a phone with an emergency alert pop-up on screen, reading "+61 444 444 444 Just Now. Bushfire Emergency Warning from CFA - People in XXX should EVACUATE IMMEDIATELY." The caption of the image has a phone icon and the message "Don't Block +61 444 444 444 It's an Emergency Alert"
Apols for Xposting, but this one is important (via ABC news website) #VicFires
@shaynecalliss.bsky.social your musings on sheep, and life, are missed. Hope you and @callissclan.bsky.social had a lovely Christmas
