Hey I found your blog from Kjerstin! I love that you posted this on your blog! They are sure fun to read. I feel your pain about not being able to have kids. We have a little on that is almost three and have been trying for over a year to have another one. I had no idea about your hubby's cancer! Is it all gone? What a life!
wow that's awesome. I'm bummed that facebook didn't tell me that you'd done this so I could have already read it. It would have been so hard to miscarry -- I really feel for you. I am hoping and praying for the best for you guys the next time around.
