I am tried of winter...snow. cold. blah. I want summer. I am the kind of girl who would be happy to live somewhere sunny all year. good riddance to winter.

It's been 9 days since my surgery- unilateral salpingo oopherectomy with biopsy of the omentum via laparotomy... I am sore and swollen. still no cancer phone call. YAY. I keep thinking if they were going to call they would have by now... but in reality it could still happen.

I want to plan our honeymoon...which at the moment we are thinking will be a cruise to spain, italy and greece...
we still may or may not be moving to NY state this summer. still up in the air. depends on my health. If all goes well then perhaps we will move. New beginning. Different country. we have a wonderful life here with fabulous friends, a great job, a great house... but it would be an exciting adventure.

I *heart* New England =)

Haven't written in a long long time....
We are married now. 6 months.
our wedding day was PERFECT.





At Christmas I found out I was pregnant... and WOW what a huge surprise. Unfortunately I had a miscarriage. During the ultrasound for the miscarriage they found a large mass on my ovary. Turns out I had a solid tumor the size of a grapefruit on my right ovary...which was removed via laparotomy on Feb 16th. along with the tumor they took my right ovary and fallopian tube and a biopsy of my omentum. I am now on day 5 of my 6-8 weeks recovery. My insides were sent to pathology to test for CANCER.



all doped up on morphine! this was right after surgery.

If things go well we were supposed to be moving to Rome, NY. We have pretty much decided to postpone that posting as the past couple of months have been so difficult. As soon as we get the good news that this is not cancer we will start planning our honeymoon =) and perhaps try again to get pregnant...
