Life could not be any more interesting!
I am discovering that life will never let you down on being bored. I had a rather interesting week! To summarize, I am currently recovering from surgery due to two baseball sized cysts on my ovaries and an ectopic pregnancy - that I didn't even know I had until after over 24 hours of excruciating pain and lots of fun tests last weekend. I would have updated sooner, but today is the first day that I have been functional enough mentally to post - I may do a lot of posting here for a while, since I will be off for at least another week or two. It's been rather difficult for me to 'rest', since I am a rather hyperactive person who needs to keep moving, but it's kind of a big deal for me to sit tight so I can heal. My future in motherhood is being challenged by a lovely thing called 'endometriosis' but this is a challenge that I intend to take head on and conquer. Thank god for the support of family and friends, and especially Derek.
Derek has remained ridiculously calm through all of this. When in the ER last Saturday being told that I was pregnant about flipped my lid ~ and he remained calm and asked all the right questions. When they said that it was lodged in my fallopian tube and life-threatening, he remained supportive and calm - my rock. Amazing how much credit I haven't given him, but in the moments of chaos, my youthful love has been the stability that I have needed to lean on. Amazing that after a year and a half I am just starting to see that he truly is more of a man that I give him credit for, and these ridiculous events that keep occurring to test my faith and strength, he has never faltered on. For being 23, he is definitely stronger than I ever thought, and I am very glad to have him in my life. Which leads me to another tale entirely, but that will be a revolutionary moment that I will post here shortly.
I am beyond grateful for having him in my life. There are few people that I know I can count on, and love beyond words, and I am glad that he is one of them. I finally see how fortunate I am to have come as far as I have, and to have had the support along the way through my eventful life.
