So much has happened in the last several weeks...

I hope you ladies have been well, I've missed it here. 

I had another small spotting episode a few weeks ago which freaked me out. But, baby has been well.

Then, we found out MIL has a brain tumor. This came out of no where. She's been fine, no signs of anything, healthy. But after one of IL's ballroom dance lessons, she had a seizure, came out of no where, was feeling fine all day. In fact, I was with her until they left for that dance lesson and there were no signs of anything wrong. Everything happened so fast. She was rushed to the hospital, CAT scans and MRI's were done where they found a spot on her brain. She was admitted and we found out a few days later from a line of doctors, (Neurologist, Neurosurgeon, Neuro-oncologist) That they believed it was a tumor. A few days later she was having brain surgery. We are currently still waiting on pathology to determine what kind it is and she is currently in rehab to gain strength back. We are hoping for the best news possible, and as of right now, the doctors believe it to be a low-grade slow growing tumor, which usually means benign. Unfortunately, the tumor is too large and incorporates normal brain tissue, so it is inoperable as far as being given the option to have some of it removed before chemo and/or radiation. 

 

Please, if you can and if you remember, keep her in your T&P's. She's such a special person, and I really want her to be around for this little one. This would be her fist grandchild, and she's been waiting so long for this.

 Also, in more baby related news, we found out we are having a girl on Monday!

I really hope to not be so disconnected from here anymore. We don't need any more emergencies. We've had enough. My mom just finished chemo and radiation herself last month for breast cancer.

    We've missed you around here. I'm glad to hear the spotting was nothing and all is well with your DAUGHTER! :) Congratulations on a little girl. 

    I'm so sorry to hear what your family has been struggling with. I can't imagine the stress and pressure you must be feeling with worrying about the baby, having such a terrible diagnosis for your MIL and coming out of chemo/radiation with your mom.

    I will absolutely keep you and you entire family in my thoughts and prayers. Please keep us posted on how everything is going. ((many hugs!))

     

    Thank you hun! And you are having a son!!! Yay! Congrats on your baby boy!

    You poor thing, you have been through much more than any one person should ever have to go through in a lifetime.  I'm so glad you have such a great relationship with your MIL.  I envy you there.  I hope and pray that all goes well with your mom, your MIL, and your little one.  Congrats on a girl!

    Sending positive thoughts your way!  Whenever my life has a major sh!t storm like that I always try to remember that somewhere, somehow, someone has it worse than me and that if I can make it through I'll come out stronger.  DH and I had a very rough time in our lives where his brother passed away (at age 26), my mom passed away (at age 52), and my grandmother passed away--all very close together.  I thought I'd lose it, but it all worked out and I think I'm pretty okay.  Keep your head up...it'll get better!
