The Final Word
The Dr confirmed today that the baby was in my tube. She gave us the option of surgical removal where you run the chance of losing a fallopian tube with the upside being that you can be certian that the problem is gone, or a more conservative method of treating the pregnancy with medicine. The downside to that is that it takes a while to be sure that it has worked and even then (on rare occasion) you may still need surgery. Needless to say, we chose the route that keeps our fertility in tact. So we headed upstairs to the hemotologists office (fancy word for blood cancer doctor) and he explained to us again the options but agreed that I am a great candidate for the medicine since I am only 6 weeks along. So after giving blood AGAIN I got a shot of methatrexate.
It is all sad, but we are strong because of the strength of our friends, our family and our Lord! Thank you all so much for everything. We are so sorry for the disappointment that we are all sharing.
You guys are still in my prayers. I know it sucks. Praise God for using the situation for His glory, but it still stinks. And that’s okay.
