Though I'm still worried about this baby, it feels as if a huge weight has been lifted from my shoulders. It's amazing how one's perspective can shift! Even though I know there's still a problem (and no heart problem can be taken lightly), the outlook doesn't seem so bad relative to what we were thinking.
Yesterday, I could barely go 20 minutes without crying. Today, I cried before the ultrasound, but I haven't cried since. My eyes feel so much better now! My appetite is back too. Yesterday, I was just going through the motions and I'm sure I didn't eat as much as I normally would, but today, I felt totally famished after we absorbed the new information. Neil and I went out and had a huge meal at the Mongolie Grill (it was nice to go by ourselves too!).
Once again, many thanks to everyone who called, emailed, and visited over the past two days. We really appreciate all of the support. It was wonderful too that my Mom came to Regina to be with us this morning. Thank you Mom! It means a lot! Also, I'm so grateful that Neil's Aunt Glenys came to our appointment this morning to interpret and remember details and ask important questions. Thank you Glenys!
