Do you ever feel like...

nothing good will ever happen to you again? I feel like since I was diagnosed with pre-e nothing good has happened to us. Of course compared to losing baby Gary everything else seems trivial, but in the last five months I was diagnosed with pre-e, we lost baby Gary, I had a minor infection, I got kidney stones that landed me back in the hospital, we got a puppy only to have him put down 2 days later, the closing on our new house has been postponed 3 times, we've lost several formerly good friends, and today we went to pick up a new puppy only to find out he had already been adopted out. Like I said, losing our baby is BY FAR the worst thing that has EVER happened to us and everything else is comparatively unimportant. But I just want to know when good things start happening for us again. We're good people. We do good things. Maybe I'm just in a funk today, but don't we deserve a little happiness, too? Sorry if I come across as being whiny. I'm a grump today any DH is sick of hearing about it.

It does seem that when it rains it pours. Sorry to hear you're in a funk. They can be so hard to shake. I remember a while ago thinking that I couldn't win for losing. Everything seemed to be working against me.
You do deserve happiness and it will come. Don't forget to look above or beyond the clouds to see the sun and rainbows.

Sorry you have to go through all this. The saying is true.... When it rains, it pours!
We have been dealing with similar things right now and nothing is going right. I hope things start to turn around for you soon.

It does seem like that sometimes. For me, it started two weeks before we lost Patricia. I was really upset about being diagnosed with gestational diabetes, then my grandma got sick and had to go into a nursing home, then our air conditioner went out. The week we lost her, my husband had to get a root canal and our credit card information got stolen. It was like REALLY UNIVERSE?!?!
My husband keeps meaning to buy lottery tickets because he says surely we deserve to win.
Ha ha! When the PowerBall in our area was way up we did buy a ticket... and we actually did hit the powerball! Unfortunately the other four numbers were all wrong. Too bad, huh?
We joked about buying lotto tix too. With all our bad stuff going on we def deserve a little bit of sunshine. Sorry all the bad stuff keeps going. Big hugs.

I agree, none of this stuff compares to the baby's death. But it just feels like a non-stop sh*tstorm.
Don't get me wrong- there have been some good moments. But the good things are little and you have to look hard for them sometimes. For me this is the part where I really, REALLY come to appreciate the little things in life because I otherwise feel like I am constantly dodging the flying feces from all directions.
