surrogacy or what?

What my doctors said about me going to get my eggs harvested... They gave me a name of OBGYN that is great at getting eggs out. They never said yes or no about surrogacy. The main concern they have is when the OBGYN wants to get my eggs ready they have to put me on these hormones to get my eggs at the right stage. When women go on hormones they are more susceptible to get blood clots. Me and blood clots do not go very well and I do not want anything to do with them. They don't know if I am going to have to stop taking my blood thinner eliquis or not, but I have to wait til my annual visit. Which is okay by me. Every time I see a kiddo, I want to eat their faces off, but not like the walking dead stuff :) I just want a little guy that I can teach, watch it grow, to love, care, laugh together, stay up at hours that everyone should be asleep. Steve and I have been searching for an attorney and I think we have found one. Great appointment status right there. 

This past week has been normal. Still train for my half marathon, I ran the furtherest I have ever ran in my life. 8 miles!! Not on the treadmill though, thank goodness. The air quality was good so I took advantage of it. Amazed, I am about how beautiful our earth is, the sort of freshness of its air, and outstanding trees and mountains. Love this time of the season. 

Saw my good friend Mandy this weekend and she is moving to Hawaii.  I never thought about it when I put on my sweatshirt. She though it was fate. Going to miss her. Such an intelligent, strong, amazing and long legged woman. Love your guts gonna miss them too. 
Todays thought..."May we be devoted and disciplined followers of Christ. May we cherish him in our thoughts and speak his name with love."

Chalk It Up as a Miracle.........

Some of you may know, but Ashley went through another Heart Transplant yesterday. After her first first new heart started to fail, we re-listed on the her on the transplant list immediately. We knew getting another heart would be a long shot, but we wanted the option to be there if a heart came available. Sure enough 18 hours on the list a second heart came available that was a perfect match for Ashley. Ironically, it took 4.5 months and then 2 hearts in the same week. We, including the doctors, are all chalking it up as a miracle. It was decided not to wait to see if the first heart would handle the load she would need but rather to move forward with the new donor heart. Going through a transplant a second time makes you really feel for the family who lost their daughter, sister, spouse and friend. We are grateful again for the family and the individual who choose to give life. We were in quite a predicament and feel only divine intervention could hav...

quarantine = self reflection

I was talking with my lovely mother on Facetime this morning and she suggested to post on my blog. I look at my blog and noticed I haven't posted since November! So here you go, during this crazy time I am no longer working and my day to day tasks have shifted drastically. I am sure all of you know what is going on all over the world. I hope all of you are staying safe and healthy. I have been in this situation before. I was taken out of the game due to my heart, my life was soccer. Now my life was going to work and heading off to soccer practice, but COVID-19 has taken that away. I am reflecting on my response when my heart wasn't doing that well. At first I was frustrated and asking why? Now I am doing the same thing. WHY? Because I am HUMAN I know!!! This time I caught myself and decided to choose another route.  My alternate route has been getting outside every darn day, no matter the weather and enjoying the beauties of this earth, sun, clouds, rain, breeze, nature, the ...

say hello

. A normal, wonderful week I had. First off, I took out my stitches and it wasn't good. After they were all out the cut re-open, so I called my friend that's a physician assistant and she was a miracle worker. I shouldn't have taken out my stitches because where I cut my hand has so much tension a lot of the time. At first she put this dermabond  on it, which is basically like superficial stitches. That lasted 2 days, I was getting a little nervous because my skin around the cut was white and the opening of the cut was too far apart. Now I have steri -strips on it for it to heal a lot closer. Anyways, it is healing and this is not infections going on so I am happy. Left: stitches out  Right: dermabond My cousins were in town this weekend. We went up to Bell's Canyon to go hiking. They live down in Monticello, Utah, which is a town outside of Moab. It is always great to see them, My grandpa that passed around the same time my first transplant failed use to live...
