Carebear's fine. Baby Avalon Rose is perfect and beautiful and fine. A few rather serious complications at the end, but after 35 odd hours of labor, that's kind of expected. I don't know how I did, but it was a pretty amazing process.
Though it meant spending my birthday in the hospital, I wouldn't trade a second of it for anything in the world. The opportunity to be with her through this process was the best birthday present ever! I am so incredibly proud of her and what she accomplished. She brought a life into this world without complaint, on her own, and I am so beyond proud of her I can't even believe it. I pray that one day I can have even half the strength of that woman. She's faced so many shitty situations, and made the absolute best of each and every one of them. She is truly my hero.
To Carebear...a proverbial toast to all you have taught me about life, strength, and the power an independent woman weilds over her own life.
