Kris itches her nose as she starts to get emotional, telling her daughters, "This just makes me really emotional. They found a cyst and, like, a little tumor on my ovary.

"I'm emotional about it because that's where all my kids were conceived, and that's where they were grown, in my tummy. And so, this [is a] very sacred place to me," Kris shares in a confessional.

As the family chats in Aspen, Khloé receives a phone call from Kourtney. This allows Kris to tell her eldest child about her recent health scare.

"I mean, I totally understand how my mom is feeling because I would feel the same way," Kourtney explains in a confessional. "It's like your womanly power, and it doesn't mean that it's like taking away who she is or what she's experienced, but I would feel this, like, sentimental feeling of what it's created."

In her own confessional, Kim expresses, "To have a surgery and remove your ovaries is like a really big deal, and I feel really sad for her, you know? I couldn't even imagine being in that situation, and how, like, you would feel really scared to be going through that."

Back at the dining room table in Aspen, Kris tells the group, "Listen, if I can get through the hip replacement, I can get through this. I don't even-I'm not nervous to be put to sleep. I'm not nervous with Doctor A, she's the best doctor in the world. But then you go to do it and like, it's so real."

An emotional Kris adds, "It's also a thing about getting older, and it's like a sign of, like, 'We'e done with part of your life.' It's a whole chapter that's just [mimics a book closing]."

As everyone continues to grieve, Kendall offers a different perspective: "I get her emotion behind it," she states in a confessional. "I get that it's sad because they have brought, you know, all her kids into the world, which is totally fair.

"But at the same time, I'm like, 'What are we gonna use those for anymore?'" she says. "If they're potentially hurting you, let's get 'em out of there." We couldn't agree more!
