We’re home. For good. With two diagnoses, medicine and a baby that’s moving closer and closer to “normal”. We have three checkups left and in a couple of months she should be off the medication.

Meanwhile my mother in-law was diagnosed with cancer for the third time, a couple of weeks ago. This time the doctors have concluded that it’s chronic (not terminal). She has started harsh chemotherapy. It brakes my heart that she is so unbelievably sick and that she and Kev have to go through this again. I feel so horrible I don’t even know how to describe it.

Sorry for the lack of updates. This is going to be short. I gave birth that same night (5/5) to beautiful baby Vega. Everything went great. I handled most of it myself at home and delivered just after vi arrived to the hospital. If there had been traffic we probably wouldn’t have made it! Kev suggested we stay a few hours to get some sleep before making the trip home and good thing we did. In the early morning it was discovered that Vega was sick and we ended up spending a week in the neonatal intensive care unit. In the middle of Kevin’s exam project of course. A week after discharge we had to return to the hospital to get Vega’s vitals checked but luckily we were able to return home after a few hours. Phew!
Since then I’ve had my first exam and it went very well. I have my last two next week (Kev as well) but I don’t know if I’ll be able to make them cause 3 days ago we had to bring Vega to the hospital again and right now I’m laying in a hospital bed next to her. Her condition is not critical but she isn’t well. We don’t know when we will be able to return home. Hopefully soon.
