Update

I know it's been a while since I have really updated about my own health and my family. So here goes.

My sister is in the hospital with pneumonia, very sick, and having a bone scan to see if the cancer is in her bones. Her daughter just found out she is expecting a baby in June (it's very early) and my sister is so happy about that and wants to live to meet her first grandchild so badly. (I am very happy for my niece, she is soon to be 32 and has wanted this - this baby will be my 3rd great niece or nephew and I am only 33!!!!).

What else. My doctor thinks I may have had a stroke at some time in the last few months. I honestly think I know when it may have been. When I was in labor with Charleigh and got a horrible migraine in the hospital. I posted about it. It was so awful they gave me some medicine and it stopped labor and they sent me home and I laid in bed all day long with a pillow on my head. It was so bad that I wonder now if that isn't what happened, since strokes can happen to women in labor. Half of my face is a tiny bit lazy. You wouldn't notice unless you really looked but you can see if I smile or laugh - one side of my face isn't as "happy" as the other if you know what I mean. Actually you can see it in the photo that is my avatar above. After that photo was taken is when I really started to wonder what the heck was going on. It was taken in July.

I have also heard of diabetes melitus causing this. But anyway, I go to the doctor next week to have an MRI to compare to an MRI that I had done 2 years ago.

And finally, I have a lump on my breast. I am going to a surgeon next week as well and possibly having a biopsy.

My mom is in remission and done with treatments from Breast Cancer, so that is really great.

Kids are doing WONDERFUL!!
