I Believe In Miracles
Well. I am pregnant. Through all the psychotic surgery and recovery and testing...yep. There is a lil me floatin somewhere. And that is entirely a miracle. Doctors are shocked since my 'medical condition' makes it pretty much impossible to have children. A reality I have long since accepted, and now proven myself entirely wrong.
Derek and I are going to be parents! A frightening, OMG where is my life going to lead me next, yet exciting adventure we are both looking forward to embracing. He is really going to be a great dad. And don't anyone dare ask if we are getting married - because that is a NO. He understands, I am not ready ~ and I don't care who cares. I already felt bad because I am pregnant and that kinda goes against having babies pre-maritally...but oops. I can't turn this down because it will probably never happen again.
I have absolutely no idea what to expect, but we are just taking it one day at a time. And eerily, I have been 'happier' lately. How freaking odd is that? Maybe that's a miracle too!

Happy Healing!
Okay, I survived the first week of recovery...on to week two! I have no idea how the hell I am surviving this, thank god for books and my laptop to keep my company on the couch as I 'heal'. I must say that I cannot stand stitches, they itch at times and coughing or sneezing has been quite the episode of pain that I would much rather do without. But doctor's orders! I am obeying to the best of my abilities, and Derek is doing amazing at keeping me in line and the house in order.
I have watched more television in one week than I have in a year..and am actually enjoying catching up on the news, sleep, and good ol' R&R at this point. Going back to work is what will be interesting, since by the end of every day I feel like my guts are going to push their way out of my abdomen. Never a dull moment I tell ya!
Tomorrow I am off to the doctor to see how things are going and hopefully will get 'released' from this house 'rest' and go from there! Let's hope that the details of my recovery are more simple than the events that brought me here in the first place...
