Updates and Surprizes

After a few months of weekly doctor visits and with every visit a stranger result I finally had surgery, thinking this is it, the end. A week after surgery my doctor told me yet another piece of news. The pathology results from my surgery came back saying I had a partial molar pregnancy...What does that mean? Basically there was a fetus and there was a mass, like a twin pregnancy but only one developed into a fetus, the other become just rapidly growing cells, like a tumor but your body thinks it's a pregnancy, hence why my blood count was so high for so long. They said I had to continue with the weekly blood tests and when my count was in the right place we would have to do monthly blood tests for 6 months to make sure the "cells" were really gone. Apparently, if it stays in your body it spreads fast and become cancerous, oh and by they way, we can't even try to get get pregnant during that time. The only way to monitor is by testing your pregnancy blood levels because those cells release pregnancy hormone. So I broke down at the doctor's office, feeling like having a baby was so so far away. I was sad, discouraged and disappointed to say the least. A week later we went to Europe, the best thing we could have done! I feel so much better now and I have a much better perspective. It's all going to be okay! I just have to remember that as much as I want to and I try to hard to plan my own life, it's NOT up to me, go figure...

I wanted to share some of the many pictures and videos we made on our trip, but unfortunately our suitcase was broken into and the hard drive with 95% of our pictures was stolen...such a bummer! We have pictures from our last couple days in Paris, which were awesome and I'm grateful to have those, but I thought I had nothing from London. Then I found this video on my phone, thanks iphone! So here it is...more pics to be posted soon...

BFFs

Since Nick and I got married, Nick has referred to Mitzi, our dog, as his step child/dog, he says that she only cares about me and she pays no attention to him...So it thrilles me to see that after 2 years and a couple weeks of Nick having kidney stones, they are now BFFs!

Jambon et Fromage & other stuff too

So I really LOVE Paris! I especially love the food, I can't get enough of these jambon et fromage sandwiches (ham and cheese on a fresh baguette) and the endless amazing desserts...I'm really sad to be leaving tomorrow for many reasons including going back American processed food. At the same time,
I'm also excited to go home and be able to speak English with anyone and not worry about my unfortunate French skills...





Most of all I am excited to see Mitzi, there are so many cute dogs here that make me miss her all the time!
