Chesed

I’m bouncing off the walls with joy! My doctor just called this morning to go over things and knocked my wait time down from one year to only six months.

I almost can’t believe this. After hearing his firm words to David while I was in recovery, “It is very important that she not get pregnant for one year. If her hcg goes up in that time we’ll have to do chemo and it will kill the baby,” I wasn’t expecting anything else. And if you know anything about how passionate I am about the sanctity of human life, you can imagine how much those words made me want to vomit. Apparently my levels were higher than they expected. And apparently the pathology report showing molar but no malignant cells changed their tune.

Sunday night my friend (who also had a molar several years ago) said because hers was a partial and her levels dropped quickly, they let her get pregnant after four months. “But don’t get your hopes up,” she said. How could I not?

I’d called in and gotten all my reports from the nurse already so seeing my doctor’s name come up on the caller ID kind of made my stomach drop. Like, how could there be more bad news? Instead, it was nothing but happiness.

I’ve got a few more weeks til I get to zero at the rate we’re going. And then monthly checks to make sure it doesn’t return. And if it doesn’t ….

Six months feels like minutes compared to a year.

I am dreaming baby already.

    Oh Michelle!!!!! I am dancing with you!!! That is wonderful news. I am funny, but I always love to hear our Doctors voice on the other end of the phone, It gives me a special feeling of being cared for and that I am VERY important amidst their busy schedule 🙂  *Hugs*

    Wonderful!!! I am finally have some GOOD news.

    My friend that had a partial molar got pregnant[accidentally] 2 months after her molar pregnancy. Her Dr. was NOT pleased but, the baby & Mom were both fine the whole way through. Not the I am recommending going against Dr. orders. In that case is was God’s ways are not our ways!!!

    God knows the desires of our hearts and He is faithful to fulfill our dreams and answer our prayers in HIS time.  This is such wonderful news and a Praise God prayer for the answered prayer!
