why good things happen to good people

A couple of depressing news in my life too. My cousin was pregnant with her second set of twins at the beginning of the year, but lost one of them back in late March. Well this week the other one died. Apparently the baby had 3 of chromosome 18 which is called Tri (something). Half of all babies die of this before 20 weeks and the rest die within 1 week of birth and none make it to their teens. They induced her yesterday and were able to take some pics of my cousin with the baby. She was baptized too and they're going to have a graveside service for her. I just feel so bad for my cousin, her 1st set of twins are boys and one of them is missing most of one of his ears, so now they're concerned that my cousin and her husband of something genetically wrong with them. So it's been rough. To top it all off, the baby was a girl and they had already named her Gracie. I'll see her in a couple of weeks at my other cousins wedding, but I wish there was something I could do for her now. At least there is a new little angel in heaven.

The last sad thing going on with me is I found another tumor on my dog Zoey. She had 2 removed last summer and now she has 2 that are visible. I know it's going to come down to when we'll have to put her to sleep, so that's been rough. She's been with Ryan and I throughout our entire time together, so she's our baby and is probably part of the reason why we stayed together through all the earlier stupid fights. It's amazing how pets just become so much of you that when it's their time it hurts just as much as a human passing. I know we have already decided to bury her up at my in-laws lake cottage. She loves going up there and swimming in the lake, so I think it would be a good final resting place. Okay enough depressing news. I just had to get some of that off my chest.
