More about Patricia:"I have a 7 yr old, Savannah Lynn Martin born December 5, 2005. My son Charles Christian Martin was born on February 20, 2012. I also have an Angel Baby in Heaven. I found out I was pregnant on Father's Day 2011. Seems when it comes to pregnancy we are a holiday type family. When I got my BFP w/SLM it was on April Fools. With the PMP baby it was a couple of days before Thanksgiving. Then with CCM I got the BFP on Father's Day and he was born on President's Day.
My second pregnancy sadly ended in early 2nd trimester unexpectedly. A week after my d&c I got a shocking phone call from my Dr that my pathology report showed that I had a rare and potentially dangerous miscarriage. I had to be referred to an oncologist. From Feb 2010-Oct 2010 I was treated and monitored by an oncologist until I was considered cured on October 25, 2010. I had what is called a Partial Molar Pregnancy/Gestational Trophobl...Expand for more
astic Disease and my baby was a Triploidy baby as well. I had never heard of this until I was diagnosed. Most people haven't. Someone even told me that "You can't get cancer from being pregnant." If you had told me that too I would have said the same thing. Fortunately for me I never developed cancer from this disease. Which is a true blessing.
I REALLY HATE THIS DISEASE. I had constant reminders every week when I went in for lab work. I kept asking my self "Why me?". Although, I did want to know why I m/c....I even kept saying that I "wished" I knew why....be careful what you wish for, b/c I did find out why. I was afraid I had done something wrong-ate or took a wrong medicine. As bad as this sounds, I sometimes wonder why I couldn't have had a "normal" m/c so that I could heal physically and move on with TTC immediately. Most oncologist prefer for you to wait a year before TTC after reaching what is called "negative". However, mine eventually considered the 6month wait.
Going thru something like this is a rollercoaster of emotions.
Yes I tell you how I feel and I'm honest about it. Some people don't like that. I even had a friend tell me not too long ago(right after the m/c) that I am raw about how I feel and there is nothing wrong about that because it shows that I am human.
Sadness, hurt, disappointment, anger, hate, jealousy, fear, guilt, panic.
I am so appreciative of all the prayers and continued prayers from my friends and family. I don't think I would be where I am at emotionally w/o you.".
