Hard questions

Tonight at bedtime Liam started crying. Big fat tears. And then he said, Mama I don't know what I'll do when you die. How am I supposed to live without my mommy hugging me and kissing me everyday?"
My heart shattered. Sweet boy.
I told him that our love is strong enough to find each other in heaven. He asked me "what if I get lost and just die?" I told him I would never lose him. He said "Just hold my hand okay and never let me go!", wailing as he talked.
I promised him I would always hold onto him, that I would do my best to protect him and keep him safe. I told him he wouldn't die until he was an old man. That we would be together for a long time and that when we die we will be together then too. He said "I hope so because you're the best thing that's ever happened to me. You're my miracle". 
He fell asleep praying and sniffling, asking Jesus to watch over his mommy and his daddy. My poor, sweet sensitive boy...

My meds, my experience and my faith 💗

Celebrating 32 Weeks... with a DVT!!

Well this week has been ... Interesting. On Monday I noticed my arm hurt at my previous IV site. It was sore and also intensely painful right at the IV site. So I just waited it out and observed... Overnight the pain woke me up twice! In the morning I knew I had to be seen. I went to urgent care. They ordered an ultrasound. The ultrasound showed too blood clots--one in my brachial vein and one in my subclavian vein (a DVT!).  They had me go to the ER. So I went to Frederick. They sent me home with increased dosages of Lovenox, 80 mg twice a day.  Starting the next day I had groin pain. And by Thursday I was dizzy. Soooo back to urgent care I went. They did an ultrasound and a CT scan and blood test. I'm anemic, but nothing was wrong. Whew! All I needed to do was 20 minutes on the monitor with baby before I left. Well... I started having contractions. They're my usual evening contractions but they alarmed the midwife enough that she wanted to keep me and give me more IV fluids....
