I approached today as if it were any other day...it's hard not to when you've been dealing with sick kids for 2 weeks, being run down yourself from the viruses and multiple wakings at night. I started thinking about this year...this milestone that I have reached. 1 year cancer free!
Huge when you look at cancer statistics...most recurrence happens in the first year. Every...

As I watch our stock market tumbling I find myself feeling cynical, how did these folks get us IN to this mess! I then remember one of the the coolest coolest things about my job....THE PEOPLE...I get inspired all over again and I have to think we will all be ok. When I do talks in schools or community groups I tell kids about the long haul medicine entails&nb...4 Recommendations23 Comments

So tomorrow is the big day that my babies start to grow in my sisters belly. My sister starts her stims in the morning! I am so ready for this. This journey has been so wonderful so far. My sister came in Tuesday with the kids and are staying across the street at my moms. We have all had so much fun and things have gone so smooth. I pretty much spend all my time over there with the kiddos and try...1 Recommendation20 Comments

I was thinking today about my current state of infertility and I decided to try and look at some of the positive things that have come out of this 2 and half year struggle. Here is what I came up with:
1. I have found some wonderful friends from all over the world that I met here on DS. I would have never met any of you if it wasn't for infertility and you ha...1 Recommendation20 Comments -
This journal is a tribute to my very best friend Shelby. Just a little background... I have known Shelby since the second grade so we have officially been friends now for 25 years. It is amazing to me to know that I have known her for that long and always stayed close to her. She moved away from the small town we both lived in in sixth grade, but luckily our parents were close fr...1 Recommendation19 Comments

Today my husband can barely walk.. I know I shouldn't be laughing at his expense, but I just can't help it.. Here is the story!
Jeff didn't have to work on Good Friday, but I did. It was completely dead at work, I guess everyone was gone for Spring Break and the Easter holiday. I worked until at 4:30 and decided I had enough. I called my DH and said I felt like doing ...1 Recommendation19 Comments -
I'm feeling awesome today! I was woken up by a man with the sexiest accent ever! I need an alarm clock with his voice. It put me in the best mood! (all of you haters are allowed to gag here, but hold your comments, because I have some great things to say! Oh, and I'm rejoicing in the fact that I am in a good place right now. Happy, healthy, hopeful - what more coul...1 Recommendation18 Comments

I really can not believe all the love and support you have all shown me. It is very overwhelming at times. I was on my way to work today and started to think about my journey and how far I have come. My world came crashing down December 07 and seems I have been climbing an up hill battle ever since. I have felt more pain in these last years then some will ever feel in there entire life. I however...1 Recommendation15 Comments

Ok.. tonight you are not going to hear me ramble on about my infertility issues, the fact that I am in my 2WW.. none of that! That is right ladies, tonight I am here purely for your entertainment. Please ladies, feel free to laugh at my expense because it is funny!
Ok - I must preface the story. Yesterday I mentioned that my DH and I went shopping. We went to my favo...1 Recommendation15 Comments -
I sent this message out to everyone on my list before I began my weekend.
Smell a beautiful flower, smile at a stranger, lift your face to the sun, blow a kiss to the moon...
and I added this to my journal
This weekend I will,
be creative, get things done,
have fun, realise a future, stay happy.
I had forgotten what a powerful thing writing that can be.
So powerful that I am inspired to share wha...5 Recommendations9 Comments
