Feeling Good and Managing the Unforseeable

I am feeling good. Some days I feel huge and and other days I don't, although my belly is really the same size each day. It has been a stressful week so I don't think I have been as focused on my belly, although still eating well. Lily went to the oncologist on Monday and she who felt the bone mass and hole in the bone was cancer. So Lily went in for surgery on Thursday morning to amputate her front left leg and shoulder. She came home the next night. She is doing very well, she walks around on her 3 legs and has the times where the pain is there. It is so hard to see, but I know the pain is only temporary as she recovers. We will hear back on the biopsy on the leg later in the week and we will know whether to proceed with Chemotherapy. This morning she is whimpering a bit, seems to be frustration from the pain and the desire to get out there and play. The timing of her osteosacroma comes at the 22 year anniversary week of Bill's diagnosis. Bill's knowledge and will to fight this uninvited guest to his body has been great inspiration for our Lily. It is also anther kind of transition for both Bill and I we await becoming parents of these special little girls growing in my belly. There will be so many amazing times, and there will also be the sleepless night with sick kids and the longing to make it all better. It takes patience, and perseverance and lots of love.
Baby A is pretty active this morning too. Baby B must be enjoying a quiet Sunday Morning. I can't wait to see them on the big screen again in just two days at our 20 week appointment!
