"Mother's Day is a beautiful and necessary celebration of all that mothers offer," tweeted Lena Dunham. But it can also cause a wave of grief for those who have lost their own maternal figure or their ability to be mothers even though they had always dreamed of it. "

Great pain

In fact, Lena Dunham had to undergo a hysterectomy in 2017. The actress had no choice but to undergo this intervention in order to stem the unbearable pain caused by her endometriosis.

#MothersDay is a beautiful and necessary celebration of what mothers give, but it can also summon a tidal wave of grief for those who have lost their own mother figure or their ability to be a mother in the way they'd always dreamed.
