Trouble TTC

Can I come back?

I am sorry I have not been around. I was not very active with y'all before I took a bump break. I am sorry for that. I am having and had some major family issues. Recap current things: Mom has been very ill and in the hospital off and on (mostly on) since July. She will be moving to a nursing home to finish recovering, which she is very mad about. MIL was just DX with stage 3 breast cancer and is having her mastectomy on Wednesday. Because of other health issues, they are not 100% sure she will live through the surgery. My life is a hot mess right now, but I need the distraction sanity of the bump. I hope y'all will take me back. I will be starting my 3rd cycle of Clomid in the midst of all this craziness. Clomid and H's family should be a wonderful combo. 

Here are some bribes treats!

  • I'm probably not a "face" you recognize but welcome back nonetheless.  I'm sorry to hear about everything you and your family are going through.  Cancer is such an awful experience and I hope your MIL will be able to recover.  My thoughts are with you guys.
