Patricia's Stories

Well where do i start lets see....ok after 1 miscarriage and 5 years latter of ttc we hit the jackpot!!! i found out that i was pregnant and after i lost my first was a little scared but deep down i knew that god wouldn't take this one from me.

so at 35 weeks i get up on a sunday morning and ready to go to church and my baby shower later that day . I was just towling off when i felt this strange pain in my side so i got dress thinking it was just a pulled muscle and then the next thing i knew i was on my knees for the pain so was bad but just on my one side so i crawl to the phone and call my doctor and tell her whats happing. she tells me to meet her at the hospitial so i get there before her they test me for kidney stones and when i stood up they seen i was very prego and tell me that i am in labour i tell them NO i am NOT they say i don't know what i am talking about re: first baby they call an amblance to take me to the maturnity hosp. I get there still in pain and i finally get sick and they rush me to delivery all the while i keep telling them i am NOT in labour! so after an internal ,they do realise that i am not in labour (HORRAY) so they check the baby out and he is fine so they come back and tell me i have kidney stones .... but at the other hospitial they said no for kidney stones the test was negative to make this short as i can they do an ultrasound after two days of not passing them and discover that i have 3 stones in my gallbladder and send me up to my room when the doctor (Hospitial one) comes to see me i am not worry he just going to tell me that i have gallstones ...boy was i wrong ! he sits beside me and i am all alone dh is at work he tells me that he is sorry that they had found a 4cm tumor on my adreinal gland! i freak and ask him so what does this mean ? he said that they have a specialist coming in to see me and that if the tumor is cancer i will have 6 months to live! i was in shock ! keeping this to my self until i talked with dh that night my MIL came to see me that afternoon with terriable news she just seen her doctor and was told she has two to six weeks to live she had brain cancer! i hugged her and we cried together she told me that she was going to see her first grandchild being born so when dh got there and he was so devastated by his moms news i couldn't tell him what happend to me . then the specialist showed up to examine me when he was there so not only did i have to tell him the spec.found another tumor ! this one on my thyroid ! so to make a longer story short they were leaving me have my baby and then i was allowed two weeks home before i was to have surgery to remove the tumors and my gallbladder well MIL died three weeks later and ds wasn't born until three weeks after that and needless to say it wasn't cancer for i am still here. first of all i was three weeks pass due for him and he never droped or my cervix never soften so i went in on a wed morning and they inserted this gel in my cervix 6 hours apart to soften it and thursday morning they took me down and put me on the drip at 11am by 12 noon they broke my water by 1 pm the contractions were one on top of each other by 3pm i was exausted and was only dialated 2 cm so i took the eppie by 6 pm i was up to 3.5 cm at 6:30 pm they lost his heart beat at 6:45 pm he was born via a c-section a healthy boy weighed in at 9 lbs 12 oz Thomas Walter James Bond our dream became our life.
