Hi, I'm Nadine, and I live in Alberta, Canada. I am 34 years old, I have three kids, Jocelyn, 9, Tim, 8 and Rose, two. I have two step-daughters too. Amanda, 17 and Olivia, 12. I have a daycare in my home, and I also teach parenting courses as well as courses for people who want to work in daycare. I love to cross-stitch and cook. I had my hysterectomy in November 2003 due to severe pain following a failed ablation attempt. So far, I feel great. I was able to keep my ovaries, so haven't had to worry about hormones...thank goodness! I am so grateful to the women at Hysterhome for helping me through my recovery and I really would like to help other women who are facing this challenge.
