I am finally feeling good enough to update the blog! Sorry it has been so long!
Well my surgery was October 22 at7:30 am. Rick said that the surgery didn't end till almost 11am. It was the right call the Dr. Bethea made by going ahead and doing the major surgery rather than something non-invasive. Don't want to gross too many people out....but it was a mess in there! If you would like to know details , just ask! There was a few minor complications, but overall everything went fine. My hospital stay was 5 days. I really only remember the last day and a half! LOL The rest was quite a fog!I am definitely rejoicing in the wonder and glory of our God throughout all of this! Finally after so many years of emotional and physical pain I am healed!!Praise God! I am truly thankful for everything I have had to go through to get to this place! A place that after almost 10years of infertility the Lord blessed me with 3 perfect precious gifts...Emma Faye, Ava Grace & Ray Anthony! When the world said not a chance...God said yes!! I am thankful and humbled to have been chosen by God to be able to give my testimony to present day miracles! Again the Doctors said they cannot understand how I was able to conceive and carry three children from those mangled body parts!Dr. Bethea himself said that "there has to be a higher power for that to have taken place"! We all know the answer to that! That is only through God's grace! On October 22 I gladly surrendered those mangled body parts. I now am looking forward to a life free from pain! No more having to hide my pain, I can now honestly tell you I feel GREAT and really mean it!How AWESOME is that?
My parents and my sister Darlin came to help out for two weeks! Rick and I could not have done it without them! I don't have enough words or quite frankly money to ever be able to thank them for all that they did for us! To sacrifice their time and their busy lives ...to stop and help us! THANK YOU GUYS!!!Darlin your the greatest Aunt and Sister EVER!!Someday ,somehow I will be able to serve you as well!

Hi Cherie!
I'm glad you are healing and feeling better.
I had several issues myself. My husband and I struggled with infertility, too. It's heartbreaking. I know! We only did in vitro one time. That "no" was enough for me.
It was clear that God had adoption in His plans for us. We started the process in March of 2003 and our first son was born in October of that same year.
Once the pregnancy doors were slammed shut, the adoption doors were flung wide open. God has been so good to us.
I had my hysterectomy when my oldest was three months old. I didn't know how bad I felt until I felt good again.
Again - - I'm glad you are doing so much better.
Have a blessed Sunday!
