Oh the joys of motherhood… snotty crazy crying children, potty training, teething, nigh time terrors and fighting… sometime it seems like there are more crazy times then good but that’s not true… Those good moments, the great, amazing moments are the most important experiences a person can enjoy. I am connected to these little beings like crazy… and for that lovey dovey feeling coursing through me I am going to give away complementary mini sessions to any moms who share this with other moms on Facebook ( tell’em to come LOVE my FB Page comment on this post about why they LOVE being a mom.
My daily reminder
On February 3 2012 around (I think ) 9 pm I woke up from what I went in thinking was Laparoscopic surgery to find out that I had actually been 12 hours away from dying. From my appendix rupturing and the hospital rupturing to coming back 4 days later for emergency surgery. When the doctors came in to talk to me they told me when they put the scoped in to look that the were astounished that I hadn’t gone septic and died. my appendix had ruptured and was infected and because they speculate it had actually ruptured 4 days prior it had also infected my colon. A portion of my colon had already died and perforated. They took out 12 inches of my intestines and my appendix. That wasn’t even the whole story! But I just want to tell you, when woke up and found out I could have DIED my heart sank. If I did was I a great mom? Did I teach them enough? Now that I am ok how can I be a better mother? So many questions raced through my head.
without tryin d to be a downer, before this every can happen to you, imagine it and then strive to be better
If you have an extra moment go check out http://nieniedialogues.com/ this is the story of a mom who was in a plane crash and more that 80% of her body was burned. She writes about her life and how beautiful it is and perspires through her difficult time. I have been following her for a long time and she is a constant reminder to be grateful because you never know what bump in the road you can hit.
