Welcome to the world of Pete and Ann, a couple who are thinking about having a hysterectomy. Their relationship has been difficult over the last ten years and Pete contemplates the impact the operation will have upon their day to day life together. Pete keeps a personal diary charting how he feels about the whole process from the initial referral to seven weeks post-op, and shows the trials and tribulations from a uniquely male perspective. Nothing in life had prepared him for the roller coaster of emotions and the tremendous challenges that faced him from the moment that Ann went into hospital.

This hilarious story could only be told by a man who’s ‘been there.’ The book provides a revealing insight into the mind of a man simoultaneously grappling with the forces of nature and his own complex emotions.
