It was in September 2021 that Amy revealed she had a hysterectomy and an appendectomy to treat endometriosis. 

"I'm feeling really hopeful and I am really glad that I did it, and I think it's going to change my life," she wrote on social media.

She said she wanted to share the story to raise awareness, because "so many people don't even know the word 'endometriosis.'"

Thankfully, it looks like the surgery worked for Amy. Here's hoping for a healthier 2022.
