ELI5: What happened after my mom had a hysterectomy?

So after I was born my mom had her uterus removed and I'm confused about a few things. What happened to the space where her uterus was? Is it still empty? Also, where do her eggs from her ovaries go now? Do they just float around in her? 

EDIT: Answered, thanks!

The eggs, which are very tiny, are just released into the fallopian tubes and then when they can not go anywhere they are broken down and absorbed by her body.

The uterus is quite small when there is no child growing in it. The other organs and internal body fat move around and fill the space the uterus once occupied.
