WTF, Mom??

So today I called my Mom to give her the results of my lab work. Everything was normal and I now have a pelvic ultrasound (ick) scheduled for tomorrow. When reminding my mom of this, she says "did you tell them that you only have one ovary?". My response was "um, no Mom because I didn't know that I only have one ovary". She says that she thought she told me that and I reminded her that what she had told me was that one of my childhood hernias perforated a fallopian tube but that the doctor said that it will heal on its own in time. My mom proceeds to tell me that she thought the doctor removed the ovary but then says now she can't remember if he did or if she just read that somewhere as a possible result of the hernia I had 33 years ago!

What the hell? Isn't this the kind of thing you would keep track of and tell your child about perhaps prior to the age of 33? My husband laughed and said maybe one of these days she will tell me that I am adopted. I am still holding out for her telling me who my REAL father is. Granted, I look exactly like the asshole so there is no denying that one, but I can still keep my fingers crossed.
