Guest guest Posted January 27, 2001 Report Share Posted January 27, 2001 , I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. I cannot even begin to comprehend loss upon loss. All I can say is that I'm thinking of you and you are in my prayers. Joleen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 28, 2001 Report Share Posted January 28, 2001 ,I am so sorry to hear of youe loss, maybe this will help you feel a little better it can put things into perspective.----Keri You are blessed!!! 1. If you own a bible, you are abundantly blessed- about 1/3 of the world does not have access to one. 2.If you wake up each morning with more health than illness, you are blessed to rise and shine, to live and to serve in a new day. 3. If you have anyone on the planet, just one person that loves you and listens to you; count this a blessing. 4. If you can freely attend a church meeting without fear, then you are more blessed than over 1/3 of the world. 5. If you have a yearning in your heart to parent a child, you are blessed because you still desire what you cannot see. 6. if you pray today or any day, you are blessed because you believe in God's willingness to hear your prayer. 7. If you pray for someone else, you are blessed because you want to help others also. 8. If you have food in your refrigerator, clothes on your back, a roof over your head, and a place to sleep; all at the same time; you are rich in this world. 9. If you have a brother or sister in christ that will pray with you and for you, you benefit from a spiritual unity, bond, and agreement, which the gates cannot stand against. 10.If you have any earthly family that even halfway love you and support you, you are blessed beyond measure. 11. If you attend a church with a church family that offers you one word of encouragement, you are blessed with some form of fellowship. 12. If you have money in the bank, in your wallet, or some spare change in a dish someplace, you are among the world's wealthy. 13. If you can go to bed each night, knowing that God loves you, you are blessed beyond measure. 14. If you try each day to imitate our lord Jesus Christ for even a minute, you are blessed because you show a willingness to grow up in him. > , now that I think about it this may not really help at this point for you, I know I was pretty angry at first and did not want to hear things like this, maybe your stronger than me, anyway I hope that at some point it does bring some sort of comfort to you.----Keri Find the best deals on the web at AltaVista Shopping! http://www.shopping.altavista.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 28, 2001 Report Share Posted January 28, 2001 I have to call the dr tomorrow to make sure that my HCG levels are going down. I am soooooooo scared. I don't think I can handle it if it is going up or staying the same. The dr said that he looked everywhere and didn't see it and that with the huge amount of blood I lost that it had to be a uterine pg. I felt this time that my baby was a boy. I know it was too soon to know, but it is just what i felt. So I have two angel babies in Heaven: Sara 8/31/00 1/25/00 I just know that my angels are watching down on all of us... lisa r T.T.F.N.

Guest guest Posted January 28, 2001 Report Share Posted January 28, 2001 Hi Dana, I'm just getting this message (Sunday 11pm), so I'm not sure if has already posted. I do have her home number, but didn't want to impose on her privacy. I spoke to her briefly Thursday evening after she returned from her doctor's appointment. She was in bed resting and upset. I've also been very concerned about her, but I know when she's ready to speak to us, she will. Let's give her a little longer. I'm sure she'd appreciate everyone's thoughts and prayers. maria R > I am getting VERY concerned about R, does anybody have her number or have > an idea how we could check on her??? > > Dana > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 2, 2001 Report Share Posted February 2, 2001 R., Glad to hear you were out and about today, but don't push yourself too much. Give yourself time to heal. Trust me my ep was over a year ago and there are days when I still do nothing but walk around w/a kleenex drying the tears, but they do get fewer and farther between. What you are feeling is perfectly normal, remember that!! Kel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 5, 2001 Report Share Posted February 5, 2001 thanks darci!! I am praying for you in this first month of ttc.. it seems to be the hardest with the highest expectations. Be gentle with yourself. Well, I made it to work. I lasted 4 1/2 hours.. not bad. I am exhausted! I forgot how tiring standing on your feet filling prescriptions can be!! I started walking real slow and everyone just kept commenting on how " horrible " I looked. It must be the flu!! My boss is the best. He suggested I go home early.. how lucky am I?!! It felt good to be back. I only cried once when I got there and saw one of my friends, so I had to tell her!! Hope you all are having a good day!! lisa r T.T.F.N.
