EARLIER THIS WEEK, Sinead O’Connor announced that she would be undergoing a hysterectomy.

And on Wednesday the singer went into surgery… and liveblogged the whole thing on Facebook.

Naturally, she was a little scared.

But soon she was at peace with the whole thing — although she did have one last request.

Fortunately the surgery appears to have gone well with O’Connor telling fans yesterday that she was “very sore but happy”.
