Been a while, eh? Today's my birthday. 26. Twenty. Freakin. Six.
SO I got on here to COMPLAIN. (duh)
25 was THE WORST YEAR OF MY ENTIRE LIFE. That is not an exaggeration. Losing my child was handsdown the worst thing that's ever happened to me--it put a strain on my marriage, it made me realize how badly I want to be a mom, it left a huge empty hole, I had to deal with grief for the first time. Anyway. I don't wanna talk about it.
I'm not anticipating 26 being much better. I know I won't have a child while I'm 26. Thanks in part to being diagnosed with Factor 2 and living in Africa where there isn't adequate medical care for my disease that would allow me to be pregnant.
Hoping to survive this next year. Hoping to find a way to lean toward the side of actually thriving.
