Well, you sound like a fighter. I am glad you are finding ways to work on the memory. I too find myself playing the who sang that song game. Or what movie or show do I know that actor from and who are they. I am an artist and I paint and draw, but ever since I came home all I do is stare at the canvas. I guess it will take time to find the inspiration again. Patience is not one of my virtues. The right doctor does make a difference. When I was pregnant with my son 11 years ago my OBGYN let me go way past my due-date, (I was 10 months) I tried to tell him, but he just wouldn't listen to me. I told him I was further along than what he was tellign me, but he was going off periods and he was the doctor, "what do I know, right?" I knew I was pregnant before I ever missed my period, and when I finally went into labor he was too big to come out. I had to have an emergency c-section after being in full blown labor and pushing. I remember hearing the delivering doctor swear at the nurse that he was going to kill my doctor. I am pretty sure I wasn't suppose to hear that. My son had a bowel movement due to the stress of his size and lack of room for him and he inhaled it (severe meconium aspiration). He was on a high-frequency oscilator at first and after a month in children's hospital in Denver he came home on oxygen, which he finally got off of at 4 months. He weighed 9lbs, 7oz and was 22in long, bones would have had to break for him to come out naturally, his head didn't even fit in my pelvis. To this day his head is huge, there was concern with the size, but he's all brain and extremely smart. Anyhow, I think I've rattled off and lost my train of thought. LOL
How long have you been married? How old are your children?
Thanks for taking the time. I appreciate it.
