There is so much more I can say of our journey over the last 2 years, but I wanted to leave it here with a positive one. TTC, infertility, endometriosis causes so much pain, anxiety and anger. You truly don’t understand it unless you’ve experienced it yourself. So many people likely assume the cliche “conceived on your honeymoon” and you always hear the “just relax”, “just take a vacation”. (Which PLEASE do not ever say these things to anyone). & it has aways frustrated me because we’ve done all of the above before, we’ve taken vacations, we’ve tried the “not thinking about it”. Please remember we did many medical interventions to get our baby— surgery, medication, testing, etc. The only way I was able to cope with the process- trusting in God and loads of therapy 🤍🙏🏼 This is just a part of our story. Our child will know how heavily we prayed for him, years on end & how blessed we feel that we get to be HIS parents 🙏🏼🤍 #pregnancyjourney #infertilityjourney #endometriosis #pregnancy #pregnant #honeymoon
These last four years have been very traumatic. From having a baby, then 6 months later getting diagnosed with an aggressive form of thyroid cancer, to having major surgery right after her first birthday with a debilitating fear of being put to sleep and not waking up, to having a bad reaction to waking up and that was traumatic. Multiple rounds of radiation to make sure nothing was left behind. Yearly petscans to make sure it’s staying gone. Having blood work done every 3 months for the rest of my life by multiple doctors to make sure it’s staying gone and to monitor my autoimmune diseases. To being diagnosed with hashimotos, lupus, alopecia, PCOS, and a gene mutation that basically makes it harder for my body to fight off cancer. Then needed a partial hysterectomy because I have endometriosis, a very high risk of uterine cancer and then they find adenomyosis after the hysterectomy. To having heart problems and being diagnosed with pots and CAD. Also being diagnosed as insulin resistant and pre diabetic because of your PCOS. The list just goes on and on. Yearly mammograms because I’m at a severely high risk for breast cancer. Ultrasounds of my ovaries every 6 months because of my PCOS and high risk for ovarian cancer because my doctor wouldn’t listen and just take those out as well. I have endured so much medical trauma in 5 years it’s unreal. But I’m still here. I’m still fighting. Some days I really want to give up. But I can’t. I have two daughters watching me, looking up to me that I have to find the strength for. If you’re struggling too I see you! You are safe here and you’re never alone! I am proud of you and I love you 🖤🫶#fyp #chronicillness #medicaltrauma #lupuswarrior #thyroidcancer
