Yesterday I attempted to do a make-up day. I had the cookies ready, I was gonna flop on the bed and get my rest on. As I drove the kids to school it was all I could think about. By the time I dropped the kids off and teturned home I had one of those... Continue Reading →
Today was the first day of school for the kids. I'd been dreading waking up early again, but excited at the thought of hanging out in a quiet zone where I wasn't telling people to stop fighting, and being able to hoard cookies for myself while lazing around to nurse whatever it is that still...

I came here to write about a few updates, but I think my heart is so heavy that I am just going to vent instead. I need.. NEED to get some of what is going on inside, out. Tomorrow I have a biopsy. I have no clue if there is something going on, and frankly... Continue Reading →
Dating men. Years ago when I used to date men my friends would find my dating stories entertaining. Not because they were good, but because my dates were bad. Very bad. From the guy who came up behind me and grabbed my hips while thrusting into me (I had innocently bent over a display in... Continue Reading →
A year ago today I stood in the hallway at OHSU right outside the door of the ultrasound room, and cried as I listened to a cardiologist tell me that G needed to have life saving open heart surgery. These were the same halls I walked when I was visiting G in the NICU after... Continue Reading →
I used to get really offended when kids would stare at G when we are out in public. You see, because of the prednisone doses, G has been dealing with a suppressed immune system. Because of this, when we go out I make him wear medical masks to reduce his chances of walking into a... Continue Reading →
A couple of days ago, G saw the Rheumatologist. As you know, he has been tapering the prednisone every Monday while taking the colchicine. The plan is to continue the taper, with him going off the prednisone completely by June 11th. He will stay on the colchicine after he finishes the prednisone, with hopes that... Continue Reading →
G started a new taper to his prednisone yesterday (the Dr. had him do it a day late, since we typically do it on a Monday) and he is holding on this dose until he sees the Dr. again on the 12th. Other than some random pains that haven't amounted to anything, he seems to... Continue Reading →
The blog posted before I was finished writing. Apologies for the resend, but this the complete entry. It was a premature enter button push.
It’s really freaking hard to think that it has been almost a month.
So, here is the run down on where things are.
August of 2000 I gave birth to a wonderful boy. In fact, two of them. I had twins. Only, mid way through my pregnancy (at 20 weeks) I was told I was going to have twins, yet one wasn’t alive. They were in fact, conjoined. When I tell people this they want to know how the boys were conjoined, and usually think of what is full conjoined twins or most commonly known as Siamese Twins. The boys were conjoined, but by one long umbilical cord. The cord made a stop off in the placenta, but kept flowing to the other baby. It is called T.R.A.P Syndrome. G’ls heart worked for both babies.
I was devastated. I grieved the loss of one child, though I had to carry…
