My day seemed to be going better. Work was fine, and I had a good evening with my husband and son. Then I came home, and there in the mail was a statement from my health care provider. For the first visit in a recent series, culminating in my D&C.
And it hit me that I'll be getting more of these. And they'll need reviewing and paying and filing, and possibly straightening up with the insurance company, etc. All this terrible, blandly impersonal paperwork that treats my little angel's departure like it was any other generic medical procedure. It's not the money, we can afford it. It's the reality that we have nothing - LESS than nothing - to show for it.
But I woke up early in the morning with a better thought, and I'm sticking with it. Matthew 19:14 came to my mind as I lay in bed: "Jesus said, 'Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.'"
So I'm going to set aside that paperwork, and instead envision a warm and wonderful welcome in Heaven for my baby.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
I was so insulted, but in a way I see they have to be desensitized. I faced the same thing with the bills, a neverending reminder of something that could have been. I like your view better, you really brought me comfort tonight. Thank you!
Love,
