Menopause Book Posted: 04-29-06 19:45pm
Call for stories
my mother died in 2003 at the age of
seventy. Despite the years our
adult-hoods overlapped, she never talked
about the physical changes she experienced
during and after menopause. Her silence
left a void in my life, a void that I
don't want my daughter, or my
granddaughter to experience.
As I started working on my book, I noticed
that other women were feeling the same
void in their lives. My concern then
extended to my own sisters, and the
sisters of my heart. My story is
dedicated to those women who share my
genetic make up and to those who share my
heart.
I invite you to share your story in my
book. Your story should be guided but
not limited to the paragraph and list of
questions below.
The journey of the matured woman is a time
when we are challenged to redefine
ourselves, independent of fertility. I
invite you to share your journey into and
beyond menopause. Join with me, for you
daughters and sisters, sharing the journey
of the matured woman.
Tell me about the time when you stopped
menstruating.
Tell me about your health issues since
that time.
Tell me what lead up to your treatment
choices.
Tell me about the treatment options you
chose and the results.
If your health is good, what is different
in your life, if anything?
please email me at t
hematurewoman@prodigy.Net .
The stories will be reviewed for inclusion
into the book. You will be notified if
your story will be used and if you want to
use your name or remain anonymous
if you would like to talk to me, please
email or mail your phone number with good
times to call you.
Thanks for your contributions. .
