I'd recommend stuffing a pillow against your tummy when the pain strikes; it's a semi-helpful support for such things, or at least, it was for me after my hysterectomy a few years back.

Yikes. That's a pretty awful thing to have to live with day to day, especially seeing the other guy's kids (and wife!) all the time. I would think it would be hard not to be angry about it - and all I have to go on is imagination.

Frat boys, sheesh! SO not the heroes of anyone's story - even their own!
