It's Already December

December just started out with a bang. I found out I was pregnant in early November but my first ultrasound wasn't looking so great. I had another ultrasound December 3 and it wasn't good. I didn't even develop beyond about 5.5 weeks just like every other time. So we had to get a D&C scheduled. My ultrasound was in Eugene on the morning of the 3rd and I had an orchestra concert that night in Gold Beach (only 4.5 hrs away). I had 2 other orchestra concerts on the 4th and 5th also. I almost had to go back to Eugene on the 6th for the D&C but they found someone to do it in Coos Bay (only 2 hrs away). So I had the surgery on the 6th and we are getting the tissue sent for genetic testing this time (this is miscarriage #4). I felt horrible yesterday after the surgery but felt much better today. I spent most of the day on the couch, but we did go get a Christmas tree today. We just drive up the road about 10 miles and cut one down. So back to work tomorrow!

So they aren't the biggest most full trees around but at least it's close to home and only cost $5.
At least this year the trunk is bigger than 1 inch around. Maybe even 4 or 5! By the way--this is me recovering from surgery yesterday!



Here I am at my orchestra concert in Gold Beach. I think we did pretty good this year.

Tamara! Lise just told me yesterday! I am so sorry! You are one strong woman! I wish I was there...or you were here, so I could have brought you a blizzard or soup or whatever you wanted! (we loved seeing you guys when you were here!)

So sorry Tamera-- that is some hard stuff. I hope you can get some answers soon!

That breaks my heart, Tamara. I am so sorry. I hope they can give you some answers with the tests!

Apparently I haven't checked your blog in forever so it was nice to get all caught up. I miss you! And I am heartbroken for you Tam. Anything I can ever do- don't hesitate. You are so strong. In every way. Love ya.
