More Tears

I know it's hard to imagine being so incredibly happy yesterday and then sad today, but it's true.  It happens.  Today Dr. Howe (my oncologist) called referring me to the U of M's Reproductive Medicine Center so I could set up a consultation with a fertility specialist before starting tamoxifen.  The woman I spoke with gave me a general rundown of services, all of which are extremely expensive, and most of which are not covered under my health insurance plan.

I know it's way too early to be giving up on having kids, especially since there is still so much that we don't know - we have many options.  It's just very cumbersome and scary and not at all the way I imagined making our little family of two into a family of three or four.

I'm still feeling VERY optimistic about everything else; it's crazy to think that it's been four weeks since my surgery on June 26 - absolutely nuts!  I'm feeling better and better every day and couldn't have asked for a better recovery period!

  1. Cassassie- I have never cried and laughed so much! Sad tears because I love you, but you are just so darn funny you still make me laugh! And obviously it all makes me hate you even more because I don't like emotions! :) But I love you and can not express how amazing you are! Love you! Bekah
