Thoughts on a D&E

Posted on Friday, August 5th, 2005, 5:35 AM

Before I leave for the hospital, I just want to share some of the things that are going through my head.

  • It’ll be nice to get rid of this stuffing. Every time I sit up or sit down, it feels like I’m sitting on a rock
  • I’ve now suffered the dreaded triad of reproduction: Infertility, Stillbirth and now Miscarriage. One is bad enough, two is nearly unbearable…but three? Come on! Give me a friggin’ break already!
  • Why do all of my pregnancies have to end in general anesthesia?
  • I wish all the medical websites I’ve been to in the last day or two wouldn’t call it an “abortion”. It makes it sound like I had a choice in the matter. I know its the “medical” term but they need to find a new one. Maybe “fetal evacuation”. Makes it sound more like there was a fire or something and I didn’t control it. Which is what it feels like.
  • God, I hope everything goes okay.
  • I have some of the best internet friends a girl could possibly want in a time like this. How lucky am I, in that regard?

See ya on the flip side…

    I cried an ocean this morning thinking about you. I hate like HELL that I am so far away. My thoughts are with you today. I love you and miss you so much. I want to be there for you. I know that there is nothing I or anyone else can do to “make it better” - I only can hope that you have the strength to get through this. If there is anything I can do for you, let me know. I willdo whatever I can to help with the burden….

    Callista, My heart absolutely breaks for you right now. You are one strong of a woman to endure all that heartache and still be able to talk about it. I know that we don’t have a choice in these matters, but I truly believe God has the perfect bundle of joy just waiting for you in heaven.

    Don’t let this take away your hope or your joy!
