Hi everyone. Just wanted to let you know that I’m doing okay. I just got back from a nice little vacation with Levi. Our therapist recommends that we start living our lives as normally as possible now. Levi has another week off work. I may come on here tomorrow if I’m up to it. I love you all so much, I’ve read the messages you sent me and it’s overwhelming to see how many people really care. Instead of mourning Annie’s death we have decided to be thankful for the time we had with her. Having another angel on your side is never a bad thing.
The doctor told us that there is no reason I cannot have children. I started out with twins and one was too weak and became absorbed back into my system. It turns out that Annie was also not developing as she should have. However, he said that not only is Vanishing Twin Syndrome rare, what happened to Annie is even rarer. He also said that had she somehow come to full term, she would have had a severe heart defect. I really believe that God didn’t want that for her so he decided she would be safer with him.
I’m able to smile now and laugh a little. Levi has been a rock for me. He had a girlfriend abort his child without his consent a few years ago and while that isn’t really the same thing, he’s using the strength he gained from that experience to get through this one.
I love you and appreciate all the prayers :)
