Sarah's endometriosis is getting worse...

[@leaaa_vsn]

In the comments many say that Sarah should get pregnant again to avoid the pain of endometriosis but in all cases it will come back and maybe even the pain will be worse. Getting pregnant is NOT a treatment for endometriosis.

[@helenhancock7295]

I agree that Sarah so do what makes her feel good! Also agree with many that have said, Sunny needs a few more NO’s in her young life. She will be grateful when she gets older and won’t be so disappointed when she doesn’t always get what she wants. Y’all are good parents, fun parents, but set boundaries on camera and off camera. Love y’all, from Texas.

He was recording a video and she was sleeping, so I think he was doing what he could just to keep the kids quiet. Quit telling people how to parent. This is just a video it doesn't mean it's their everyday life.

Hey Sarah, I do know your pain! I lost my first ovary at the age if 17..they said that u would never have children..well 5 children later and 21 grandbabies, I can testify that I think yall gonna be ok.. I have endometriosis and adimetriosis.. the only difference is, endo is endometriosis tissue on the inside and adimetriosis is endometrial tissue on the outside of your uterus.. I'm almost 56 yrs old now and yall are so Blessed and God's got yall, so don't fear or stress too much, just be thankful!! Love all yall soso much

Good info‼

[@oregonlakes]

I had endometriosis and never knew it always thought that I just had heavy periods by the time I had everything really seriously checked out I had calcified fibroids all in my uterus and at a hysterectomy, and they had to actually break up the calcified fibroids to get them out be careful you can lose a lot of blood and it’s very very painful

[@amyg.333]

I too have endo, severe stage. I went 30 years undiagnosed. I’ve had over a dozen surgeries in the last two years. Praying for you 🙏🕯️, it’s the worst.

[@brittanystevens2989]

If you still had a they functioning ovary strange that you wouldn’t be able to get pregnant

NO such thing as adimetreosis. Endometriosis is uterine tissue OUTSIDE the uterus. It'd be normal if the tissue was on the inside. Google it.

[@SusieBeiler-gl2gr]

Sorry to hear about your struggles with endometriosis! As a fellow endo patient who has gratefully been able to say “ I’m endo free for 5 years” is an incredible feeling. Yes, even impossible, as most doctors will tell you. Dr. Andrew Cook in Durango Colorado is a board certified endo specialist and is truly the BEST!

Hi Sarah, I had endometriosis from age 11 to age 34. The pain was so horrendous. I just couldn't take it anymore. I had a complete historectomy, and it was THE best decision I've ever made. The only thing that helped (before surgery) was to be on birth control pills. Periods were MUCH less painful, and the flow was much lighter. Hope this helps you! I love you guys!

[@tammycoffey1058]

Sarah - if you trace the design and mark it in the position where you'll see it all the time, do a sharpie temp of the design to see how it will affect your emaotions before the real thing. Hope this helps ❤💜💙

[@sandyr4656]

Good idea

[@TeresaCox-gv9zx]

The Temporary Tattoo Is a Great Idea!! I wonder what you think about getting it ABOVE your elbow crease on the inside of your arm? That way it isn't always reminding you, but it's easily seen when you want to see it! On the back of your arm is Really out of sight, out of mind & I question the point of having it there. Since you would have to go out of your way to see it in a mirror means you would have to think of her just to see it. On my above suggested location you would Only Occasionally see it, which would likely bring you Joy because of the surprise of seeing it. Hope this Helps!!! ❤ P.S. I'd like to Place My Vote FOR You to Keep Your Hair Red!!! However, YOU Need To Be The One Who Is HAPPY, So Do Make Your Decision With That In Mind, Otherwise It Would Feel Like A Burden (or something you Flat Out Dread) & Not Something That Makes You Feel More Beautiful. On That Note: Always Remember How BEAUTIFUL You ARE No Matter What Color Your Hair Is!!! ❤❤❤ One Last Thing -- I Think Y'all Were Questioning Moving Back to Hawaii? If So, I Would Say If You Can Afford To Do So, Then My Thought Is Yes, Do. I Can Remember Videos When Y'all Were Originally Packing To Move From There. Even Then Y'all Were Voicing Doubts About Leaving. Also, There Have Been Videos Where You Expressed Maybe Wishing You Hadn't Moved -- & When You Visited Your Friends There Y'all Were Really Enjoying Yourselves & SO Sad When It Was Time To Leave. The Children Are Young Enough That They WILL Be HAPPY Wherever They Live! However, Before You Know It They Will Be Old Enough That Uprooting Them Will Affect Them. Do You Think Tanner & His Crew Would Move Back, Too? There's a Lot to Consider, But Y'all Need to Be Where You ARE The HAPPIEST!!! ☺️❤

[@befarlow]

I think that is a great idea! I was thinking of doing my brother's initials and birth/death dates. I miss him so much. We were barely a year apart and so close growing up. It will be 15 years in August and not a day goes by that I don't think about him.

[@pattymills1635]

I too had stage 4 endometriosis. After multiple surgeries the Dr said there wasn’t anything more that he could do. I was taking 6 birth control pills a day and still having breakthrough bleeding. The Dr knew I wanted to have children but said it came down to quality of life at that point. I had a complete hysterectomy at 35. I was blessed with a son when I was 38 through adoption and a daughter 22 months later. We have an open adoption with both of our birth mothers and their extended families. Blessings to you Sarah, I know that pain and frustration. God is standing in the gap for you❤

[@AnnieCushing]

My daughter is 32 and had her endometriosis surgically removed in 2022. The doctor gave her a video of the procedure, and it was eerie to watch her dig around with a robotic arm and remove it from multiple organs (and remove her appendix). But it only gave her a few months of relief. She had a hysterectomy last year and is now pain free and the bloating is gone. So sorry you're experiencing this, Sarah. I enjoy your family chronicles and appreciate how real you both keep it.

[@AndriaBobbles]

Sending love to you Sarah, I hope you can get the support & relief you deserve ❤ i have fibromyalgia & chronic joint pain and can empathise with how debilitating being in constant pain can be. My mum had endo & remember her being in a lot of pain and had a couple of ops when i was 6-9 to remove the clots, but she finally ended up having a hysterectomy when i was 10 & my big sis was 14. It's a condition many females experience & is not researched enough, nor is there enough medical support for those with it xxx

[@maryastark8075]

​@@AngelasAdviceI absolutely agree, but continuously coloring will destroy it. What choices are there?

[@katek4275]

Henna for sure! If she wants to stay red it's the best option. Doesn't fade nearly as much, can get the same color easily, it's actually healthy and conditioning to hair and makes it thicker over time by binding to the outside of the hair shaft instead of penetrating it like regular dye, has no harsh chemicals like PPD (can cause hair dye poisoning), and she can highlight or bleach it to a strawberry blonde if she wants

If I didn’t color my hair it would be pure white. Derek, it is a pain in the neck to have to color roots every three weeks. By the end of two weeks the white is already showing so I usually wear a hat in public during week three. I color it myself but it’s about $100 including tip for a professional so Sarah should be able to decide on what she is willing to put up with. 😊

a good spot for a tattoo is also on your back shoulder because you’ll be able to hide it easily when needed. Would not recommend putting it on a very visible place.

[@alexakellymusic]

My endometriosis specialist recommended the following things - and it has reduced my pain massively (it hasn’t got rid of the pain, but it really has helped) & I hope some of these can work for sarah!! The following diets - Gluten free, Dairy free & Low FODMAP & LOW SUGAR (I feel this has made the biggest difference with pain). Exercise everyday - whether it be weightlifting, yoga or walking/cardio. Also magnesium supplements reduce muscle cramping, and electric heat pads are a life saver to reduce the pain. 8 hours sleep per night (and as little stress in your life as possible) allows your body to recover while resting which reduces inflammation - therefore reducing the pain. She also recommended acupuncture which I haven’t tried yet, but it’s supposed to be great!

[@robertavecchio-kilduff7317]

Endometriosis and adenomyosis for me. Had an ablation and finally a hysterectomy. The pain is unbearable and really, it is misunderstood. I had one doctor say, “So you have bad periods. It’s no big deal. Finally found a doctor who actually listened. Good luck, Sarah. 🙏🏻❤️

After 2 preventative surgeries from my endometriosis, my OBGYN did the right thing…she did a hysterectomy. However, she found more problems so I also had an appendectomy- a 2 for 1 deal. The nurse in the ER - Linda…I will always remember her, she saved me! So, there I was, in the ER and after seeing what was going on she Linda said, “Oh honey! You’re going to need a hysterectomy! It will take a couple of months to recover…but, it will be the best surgery that you’ve ever had.”. She was SO right! Thank god I had the surgery when I did! Twenty two years later- it was the best surgery that I have had so far. My hysterectomy/appendectomy turned into a A++! I have had too many surgeries- over 12 of them…one was open heart ❤️ surgery and another was a craniotomy followed 3 years later by a Burr hole surgery. Oh…I had a major stroke from a patient foramen ovale- ostium secundum- a hole in my heart- between the atria/atrium…I forget which one- I think it’s atria. That is what caused my major stroke. People don’t believe in miracles- I definitely do! Good luck to (you) Sarah! Whether it’s another child and then the hysterectomy like Derik wants…well, if you (Sarah) do have the elective surgery…after a 2 month recovery, you will see what I mean!

I understand its hard to get pregnant with that but after having a hysterectomy i was told pregnancy cures it.

Its very sad.

I used to dye my hair this deep shade of red and yes, it is very tiring.

Now I want it back lol The thing is, you have to go with your gut. Sometimes it's just too much work. However, if you feel like going back to red, then do. Just remember to always keep it hidrated, understand how your hair works to keep it healthy and just do what your gut tells you, girl. You'll be good no matter what :)

I lost both my parents when I was 19 and 28.

I will also be integrating my children into the tattoo in some way to have them, in some way, close to their grandparents (whom they will, sadly, never meet).

@tegan my heart breaks for you hearing this. My daughter has stage 4 endometriosis as well, it is spread throughout her body and she is in severe pain every day of her life. I pray they find a way to manage this disease better, Surgeries can only do so much. Good luck to you. 💕

[@boneshakauhaahaa]

I’ve struggled with endometriosis most of my life and only now am eradicating my symptoms. Gut health is essential, keep warring. 💛

[@effierau-stathakos2984]

Absolutely true...fix your gut and everything else will follow...gluten/grain free...100% organic everything...fruits, veggies, pastured meats, eggs and good fats like pastured butter, olive and coconut oil and avocados...you won't believe the transformation!

[@lalalimonada9109]

Please explain

[@boneshakauhaahaa]

@@lalalimonada9109 Endometriosis symptoms can be linked to bacterial infections in the gut and body. New research came out about this last year I believe. Since then I got properly tested and have been steadily dealing with bacteria overgrowth and it’s drastically changed my endo symptoms. I highly recommend proper gut and blood testing! 💛

My mom passed many years ago at a young age. She loved the singer, Neil Diamond. Every time I hear his songs, it makes me so happy, and reminds me of my mom. ❤ I think wherever you decide to have the tattoo it will bring you joy. It seems like that’s what the angels did for your sister. Live on with joy, I bet she’d be thrilled!

[@iheart26wookies]

I suffered with endo from age 15‐24. I had 2 sons at 21 & 24. Had a total hysterectomy at the end of my 24th year. My baby was 9 months old. The endo pain was unbearable. Bless you. ❤

I vote for Sarah to keep her red hair. She looks beautiful with her blonde hair but looks amazingly gorgeous in her red hair. 😍 🥰♥️♥️♥️

[@KarenArchie-rj4iq]

To have to dye it every 3 weeks is really a lot of wasted time. I also would be thinking about all the chemicals but that is a given with dying it blonde too.

[@lisaravin7339]

One of my friends got cancer from hair dye. I stood dying my hair because of that.

[@sandyr4656]

@@KarenArchie-rj4iq Blonde is her natural color

[@aidavazquez4858]

Sarah could dye her hair every two-three months (just to take a break) and not every three weeks, which can be a bit much.

[@annettefreese3399]

Use a darker color. ​@@aidavazquez4858

I know it’s a pain, Sarah, you really look beautiful with your red hair.

[@Blue-dg8vb]

Thank you for sharing your Endo struggles. I had three surgeries, including excision, multiple procedures, treatments etc and finally gave in to chemical menopause. I wasn’t “pain free” it just felt like the volume was turned down. It was the most relief I had in years. Although they may help relieve symptoms, Pregnancy & hysterectomy isn’t a cure. I know people who have it worse following both of these things. We are currently in the midst of IVF treatments and these hormones have just been triggering my endo pain & symptoms so bad!!! Sending all my love to anyone struggling with this and hope you find relief soon ❤

[@SavannaNoel1216]

I’m wish Sarah on the hair thing. She’s a full time mom of two little ones & keeping up with her hair is hard especially if it’s something she already doesn’t want to do. She’s beautiful blonde. The change was good for a bit but I’m super ready for the blonde back!!! 🔥🔥🔥

[@sn2a1]

Sarah was blonding her hair years. Peroxids are bad for hair also. Very dull subject. Who cares that much about hair?? She should leave it be at rest and see what her real colour is nower days.

[@erinrenee980]

I understand Sarah with the hair debacle. Red hair is so hard to keep looking like the 1st day you got it done. It fades too fast. The red hair is my fave on you, but your blonde is gorgeous too. You're a gorgeous girl who can literally pull off any color.

[@RoyGrahamFam]

Your family is the sweetest

[@caliblue2]

I’m happy Sarah is going back natural or blonde. It’s her personality and we love and miss the blonde Sarah. She’s gained the confidence of how pretty she is with red hair but I miss the blonde Sarah. Weird eh? And defbSunny will outgrow this- her brain is making connections- keep her food as close to source as possible and bare feet on the ground. Sometimes the kids that give u the hardest time end up being the best adults. It’s like they go through it so hard they morph into it.😘

[@Knnh3x]

I think the red hair makes her look old

[@livinright1]

I hate to say this, but I had Endometriosis horrible in my teens + 20's! Unfortunately for me, my scar tissue spread too quickly in my tubes I was unable to naturally conceive 😢 You are blessed to have your boy and girl, but don't force yourself to suffer in pain to please others! I eventually had a Hysterectomy/Oopherectomy in my early 30's because I spent equal time in bed as not... please put your health first🙏🙌🙏

[@lenorajames3574]

Outside of the top of your foot is where I love it for you! She’ll be with you every step! ❤

[@lindaatkinson7500]

It is a lot of chemicals in dying hair. So Sarah’s choice plus every 3 weeks is time consuming and one more thing for a momma to do! On the endo side of things…I had endo with cyst, along with fibroid tumors. Endo is painful enough. Also, every time a person goes in for another surgery you are more susceptible to scar tissue. I’m sorry Sarah that the endo is so painful. I eventually had a hysterectomy because of all of it. Once you have endometriosis, I was told by a doctor that it’s very common it will come back. All the pain that I had hurt so bad that I didn’t even know I had clusters of gallstones as well. The pain was that painful that I didn’t even notice the gallstone pain. Brutal. I hope that this helps you to make an informed decision. Love you guys!

[@ruthiemills6997]

Hey Sarah-how about an “angel” on your shoulder? You would be able to show people and see it in a mirror when want to see it. Kinda like your sister is there like a guardian Angel…and I love your hair both colors! ❤😊

[@angelasanford8814]

100% Do what you want but the red is GORGEOUS!! ❤

[@Doom1981]

A radical option, harvest some eggs and then have a surgery, this way you would need a surrogate, but would not close the door on future kids, but at the same time Sarah has a huge improvement on quality of life.

[@rachaelstevens8075]

Hysterectomies are not a guarantee that endo will no longer grow. Most endo grows outside of the uterus so removing the uterus will not necessarily “cure” endo. It’s true you will not have endo on that organ anymore but bowel endo and cul de sac endo are common after a hysterectomy

[@debbiemeyer7666]

I sure feel for Sarah and know what she’s going through, especially feeling bad with small children to take care of. I had endometriosis in my 30’s (I’m now 64). We had all the kids we wanted (3 sons) and then had a total hysterectomy. Before that, I would take birth control pills even through the 1 week off them as that would stop the pain if I didn’t have a period. I had multiple laparoscopies to remove the endometriosis scar tissue. Some of it had attached to my bowel, which caused alot of pain even when I wasn’t on my period. They couldn’t get all of the scar tissue removed with the laparoscopies, so a hysterectomy was the only answer. I had the surgery when our youngest was 7 months old. I will be praying for you. 🙏🏼❤️

[@annodal8465]

About a year and a half ago, I started my period and it lasted 6 1/2 months. My provider was afraid it was cancer but they found growths and determined it was Endo. The growths were removed a year ago but I have been bleeding off and on for the last 2 months again. For me, a hysterectomy is the next stop but I'm 40 so I have long since given up on any thoughts of having kids naturally. My mom and her 5 sisters had terrible menstrual related issues and they all had to have hysterectomies. One of my aunts was 27 when she had it done. Praying for you, Sarah, and that you can find something that will work or that we both are just healed of Endo completely!

[@carolynturk-hu7je]

Do not wait to address. Love KZbinrs Alessio and Jessie, check out their fertility journey with endo. Keeping them from having any children at all to date. With miscarriages and heartache. They have two embryos waiting that they can not implant yet. Jessie does talk on their channel about what she does to manage the pain. There is no quick fix. But perhaps you could have them on your podcast and support one another.😊❤

[@susanfenwick734]

You can have a temporary tattoo made of your sister's drawing. Then put one on the inside of your arm. It'll be there for about a week and you can decide if you like seeing it or if it makes you sad to see it frequently

Don't make winning so important to Jack. Instead emphasize how he's going to have fun.

I am bone on bone both knees from a terrible accident and not able to have knee replacement due to chronic kidney disease from taking Nexium, no surgeries! Be blessed that you could at least have surgery. Find other ways to enjoy physical endorphins. Swimming is great too! In life sometimes we have to accept our limitations. And still live a wonderful life. You have a choice, whereas my husband was diagnosed with cancer and passed away a year and five days later, leaving myself and our 4 year old. Enjoy your family, your wife, your son, your daughter......😊❤

I'm so sorry sweetie for your pain, I'm bone on bone on my spine, shoulders and hips.. I have osteoarthritis and bone degenerate disease..I. still here and live in chronic pain..just hereditary and I had kidney disease at the ripe age of 19..God healed from that or me and my first daughter that's 34 wouldn't be here..the doctors tried to get me to abort her because I would die!! But I didn't listen to them and I know thats why God took my kidney disease away.. well the doctors threatened me to have no more children, but I have 5 and grandbaby # 21 on the way!!! So you see, if I would've listened to the doctors with my oldest, then I wouldn't have ALL the blessings from God that I have now!!! Shalom

When my mom passed I got Love, Mom tattooed on my left wrist in her handwriting, the only tattoo I have, I did left wrist because it goes straight to my heart. I thought I would get sad when I saw it, but it was comforting, my Dad passed in September '23 and I am getting Love, Dad in his handwriting on my right wrist.

Keep it red. Wal-mart has a product called “color lux” in many different colors. Its conditioner that is will make the red stay longer. Hope this helps! ❤

[@carolcarter-fe4ij]

I had stage 4. I had it up to my heart and it scraped of of all my organs. It was a long recovery. I also had a total hysterectomy the same day as the scraping. I feel so much better.

[@heathermarchese4371]

I am convinced that Sarah is one of those people who could pull off literally any hair color. Fully support if she's over the maintenance of the red (even though it's absolutely gorgeous!). I'd love to see a lighter brown or darker blonde next!

[@brunah.coutinho619]

Coming from someone who has tattoos on both places you mentioned (my own experience and opinion): - inside of the arm: it is more delicate yes, but even though it’s in your sight, after a while it becomes a part of your arm and you don’t actually notice it anymore unless you stop to think about it. It becomes sort of like a birth mark or something - back of the arm: it hurts a lot less, and the cool thing about it is that when you look yourself in the mirror or in pictures in poses that it shows you get this feeling like ‘wow I have this I totally forgot that’s amazing’ as if you got a ‘new’ tattoo every now and then Don’t know if it helped but just trying to show you how either option works for me. But anywhere you choose it will look incredible, because it’s such a beautiful memory of her I love the idea ❤

[@tatyanazoller9325]

Yes, red looks great on you but also red is hard to keep, it fades super fast. High maintenance. No matter what kind of color you will get you will look stunning.

[@hippyshake29]

I agree. I had red hair from years it faded so fast I had to keep on dying it. Now I gone blonde again it lasts so much longer! I loved Sarah with blonde hair. 😊

[@mergummibear]

I did 6 months of Depo Lupron shots (that put me into false menopause) and have been taking continuous active birth control pills to stop my periods ever since and I have no endometriosis symptoms! Skipping my periods is so nice! I haven't had one since 2017 after years of excruciating pain! I know I'll have to go off of the birth control if/when I decide to have kids, but I am very happy to skip my periods until that day comes lol. Keep your head up, Sarah! Endo is tough, but we're tougher! 💕

[@pamelaraney4654]

I did that too but didn’t help me. Hysterectomy at 26. What a relief it was. I felt great. No periods. Yeaaa

[@greenshp]

I did that same routine and it did NOT work in the long run. After 4 major abdominal surgeries, I ended up losing both ovaries and my uterus at a very young age. I had put off trying to have kids - and that was a fatal mistake, because then I couldn't. Please don't put it off!! Don't rob yourself of that opportunity!!

[@Basil_1001]

Sarah didn’t you travel to a far away salon to get the red hair? Keep it for a bit at least end of year. Use a box color for roots.

[@annielarink3954]

I had Endometriosis until my hysterectomy. Best home remedies is Lavendar on my abdomen and alternating heat and ice. Tons of water too!! Stay strong, Sarah! It's a tough road but it'll get better!

[@nicolehamilton7685]

I think you would be very surprised how quickly you adapt to a tattoo that you can see daily, whereas on the back of your arm will be more of a reminder when you catch it at a glade type of feeling. I also think (speaking from experience) it helps with the healing process, turning a really traumatic sad thing into a happy/positive/memorable aspect the more you see it and live with it so closely. I hope you make the right decision for you! Such a special and meaningful gift to give to yourself. ♥

I vote back to blonde 💛 I dyed mine black and regret it.. I miss my blonde hair .. 😭

Best wishes sarah

[@loveskinfood]

I really feel for you Sarah, I also had endo for over 16 years. Thankfully now been endo free fpr 9 years, please know you can be free from all pain and symptoms without surgery. What worked for me was a special homemade topical detox & cellular regeneration elixir you apply to the skin, it works similar to an IV drip just witout the needles so it goes directly to the root cause, you can feel the pain dissolving in minutes. I helped thousands of woman in the last 7 years & would love to share the recipe for the elixir with you or send you a bottle as a gift. My heart went out to you years ago but I didn't want to say anything unless you asked for suggestions. Sending love to you & your amazing family , thankyou for being such an inspiration for me over the years. Leila

[@nicolemiller3116]

Hi Sarah! Praying for you and your family 🙏🏻. I suffered from PCOS had two surgeries that I thought would heal me and help me have more babies, I had such severe pain and was diagnosed after my hysterectomy with severe Endometriosis. My left ovary was fused to my sacrum and my right pinned to a hip ligament and scar tissue everywhere. They were able to save my right for me thankfully, but it has been almost 2 years and I am still in pain, not as much but still enough. I would recommend massages especially lower back area, lots of epsom salt baths stretching and also magnesium needs to be in the diet. I found not eating any red meats helps with the bloating. But the best home remedies are those sweet babies and husband’s love and support. Those dark days remember you are not alone and they are going through it watching the woman they love the most going through this. You are not alone praying 🙏🏻 for you!
