Well, it's been a while...and I'm not sure where to even begin. When you have a baby, isn't everything supposed to go back to normal? Yea sure, those first couple of weeks (post-delivery) are always tough, but eventually you settle into a "routine", and find yourself back in business, right? In my case...not this time.
Me, Brian, Lilee, Hunter, and Braxton were just enjoying our time together...and finally becoming familiar with being a family of five.
It was Wednesday evening, and Mom and Ed had come over for dinner. Before I even knew what was happening, my mom was telling Brain to call 911. I had started hemorrhaging. I was rushed to the ER and by that time, had lost an even larger amount of blood. All I could see were my two babies...their faces...and not knowing what was going to happen next, or when I would see them again, all I could do was pray.
I remember hearing the doctor call for units of blood, so I knew it wasn't looking good. They worked on me for what seemed like hours. Finally, they got the bleeding to slow down enough to admit me and try to decide what to do next. I spent the next two days in the hospital, which unfortunately included having surgery to stop the bleeding. After being monitored for more than twelve hours after surgery, they let me go home.
I've been home a couple of days now. Just being back with my babies is enough to heal any wound. So, I probably won't be posting any new pics of my babies for a while. Right now, I'm just focusing on getting well, and hoping that the bleeding completely stops.
Please, please pray for us.
**(To my Mom and Ed...words could never express how much I love you both for what you did. You stepped in and took care of our children. I don't know what I would've done without you. Your love and sacrifice will never be forgotten.)
***(To my Husband...you never left my side, not for one second. I love you more today than ever before.)
