Picture me vapidly maneuvering my finger around in a circle. Woo frigging hoo.
The bad news: My uncle – my dad’s younger brother – passed away unexpectedly this morning. His death is beyond shocking. I keep waiting for someone to say it’s a sick joke or something. Except it isn’t. It’s just tragic.
Uncle Rick was an amazing, caring, funny, generous, loving (gosh, the list of adjectives could go on and on) man, and I feel blessed to have been his niece. I’ve lost one hell of an uncle, but my aunt has lost her husband – the man she went to prom with – and my three cousins have lost their dad and a great friend.
I can’t imagine how shattered their world feels right now.
The good news: My hormone levels have dropped back down to ground zero, if you will, so the doctor has given us the all-clear to try to get (and STAY) pregnant again this cycle. Heigh-ho, heigh-ho, it’s back on the meds I go!
