Embroidered image of Stage I Cervical Dysplasia
Here’s an old embroidery I did. It’s my depiction of cervical dysplasia. I know it’s no fun, but don’t forget get to get the vajayjay checked. I have been dealing with cervical dysplasia (a bad pap) for a couple of years. I don’t like the procedures I’ve gone through, but the sooner you catch it, the less invasive the treatment is. I can say 100% that it’s better than dying, losing your fertility, or having organs removed.
I believe in the the power of self-imposed art therapy. Take your problem, stab it with a needle a few thousand times, and make it look pretty. Control it. Own it. Move on.
