Text of the page (random words):
re the boy making big eyes ummm did you just say triplets so with that wonderful news the plan is no plan patience less worry more faith i ve been asked if anyone has said that stress could be a factor the western medical answer is no unless of course you ve stressed yourself right out of menstruating but hindsight is 20 20 and i think it s fair to say evolution has made us smart enough to not let us make more things to take care of while you are under threat of being chased by a tiger so yes i think stress has been a factor in the meantime i ve found a new naturopath btw i seriously love her already finally a suitable replacement for the bizios and dr meg see how could i not love her very much agrees that stress could be a factor she s glad to hear that everything tested in the normal range but since normal is not necessarily optimal she s got some thoughts on getting us there so that s it we ll continue to try and i can t say we won t be disappointed if our little doesn t come right away but knowing there s no reason to worry that it s not an option for us is really reassuring in the meantime plan me includes wine sushi soft cheese dairy queen and cupcakes until dr meg has something to say about it which i m pretty sure is next week like it share it print opens in new window print email a link to a friend opens in new window email share on facebook opens in new

uncategorized and tagged with cancer sucks clap along if you feel like a room without a roof get out and stay out happy mom the big c april 8 2014 this is a short little post to say mom is officially in remission her ct scan came back absolutely clear her oncologist really has nothing but positive things to say about outcomes and what to expect going forward and all this means the weldon family is once again cancer free now everyone do us a favour and knock on some wood i ve said it a bunch and thought it a million more we sure would have loved to have avoided this whole thing but omg it s really been best case scenario at each impasse along the way and for that we are all feeling very very grateful thank you again for all of your support and positive thoughts this past year we really couldn t have done it without you tomorrow later this week some unsolicited gushing about a new cookbook complete with reviews from the boy like it share it print opens in new window print email a

don t have children plan b if you choose to disregard the sound advice of plan a make sure they have some sort of skill they can exchange for money in their teenage years pretty good advice the alternate title to this post is the elephant in the room let s talk about why i stopped blogging while it goes a while back to post wedding writers block and new job writing overload the most recent reason i haven t been blogging is i ve come off about 10 months of lethargy i have been hibernating lazy exhausted those words would work too i new it was happening but in the weeks following the completion of mom s chemo i have really realized how much of my time and brain power was going to pretending that everything was normal this makes sense your brain won t let you live in a constant state of panic well mine won t anyway when people would ask me how she s doing i would answer with great she s doing really really well because it was true she did do really really well but doing well with cancer doing well with the complete loss of your stomach and doing well with a slow drip of drano being constantly pumped into you is not the same as everything is completely normal nothing to worry about or preoccupy ourselves with here it s doing really really well compared to the really really bad alternative and given the choice i think we all could have done without it which is not something you would say under normal really really great situtions the other thing that s been preoccupying me is and i m sure this comes as no surprise the boy and i decided shortly before this whole mess started that we were ready to try and make a little person when mom got sick the boy said probably wisely so should we just put this whole idea on the backburner for a while to which i emphatically answered no are you crazy turns out mother nature seems to have agreed with the boy we have spent the last year feeling pretty friggin frustrated that two healthy people in the prime of their baby making years can t seem to get it together since i m putting all cards on the table with this post it never even occurred to me we would have any challenge in this area not once if not right away then definitely within 3 months the thought that it would be a year later and still nothing didn t even cross my mind frustrating and when i m frustrated or upset or generally need to work things out i write but when i thought of writing it down i immediately thought if i write it down it will make things true and that seemed far too confrontational for this little introvert better to pretend everything is just fine besides what good would it do it wouldn t change anything and at worst it may garner 10 comments with the sound advice of just relax which fyi is pretty much the most frustrating thing anyone can say to me ever regardless of the circumstances or just stop trying which from where i m sitting right now seems like an option that s available to people that are either undergoing some kind of hormone support or already have littles or were on the fence about the whole idea to begin with or are going to start pursuing other options for increasing the size of their family and at this point we re not in any of those categories so instead i hibernated the combination of acting like my mom being as sick and that try as we might things don t seem to be going our way in our other life plans throw a crazy hectic job with insane deadline after insane deadline well overwhelming would be a good place to start but the last few weeks i ve had the opportunity to exhale at work my temporary secondment is coming to an end and while i would love to stay there are exciting changes happening in my old job and i have recently decided that i have time to wait for the right opportunity to come up for my next move besides i m good with giving up doing 2 jobs and working overtime on friday night mom is doing incredible and that s not just relatively speaking there s a huge difference in her energy and her ability to manage this new life without a stomach in the last couple of weeks and as for project little person we re seeing a fertility specialist who is running the appropriate tests to make sure everything is fine but has assured us that on paper things look good we are in fact otherwise healthy and there is nothing that jumps out to say this couple can t do this so i made a decision this weekend as an alternative to trying to just relax i have decided to instead take on a new project i m calling it plan me we can all agree the winter has been brutal and i m really noticing the itch to get outside and enjoy any hint at spring weather i can get so i m focusing my attention on all the things that the boy and i will find harder to do when we hopefully become 3 well 4 with gordon the boy and i have talked about a weekly nine and dine date as soon as weather permits my birthday present this year is a new bike to go with the one i got the boy last year we re walking the dog i m meal planning and getting our food situation back on track i m finding new motivation to start working out again i m looking at vacation plans for the summer and having just learned that we have a 4 day weekend for canada day i ve started thinking about what i can do to celebrate plan me then maybe this is what people mean by just relax but for me this isn t an attempt at distraction plan me still involves taking my temperature every morning and following up with the fertility doctor instead i m reminding myself that the hope is littles or no littles in the end it s just me and the boy who btw deserves a shout out for how awesome he s been through all of this so maybe i should take some time to be a little bit selfish and get back in touch with the things i really like to do like knit and sew and walk the dog and ride my bike and cook and bake and read and watch terrible 90s television on netflix and write for fun not just for work and that s

day mom she was going to tear out the picc line herself silver linings thank you the final countdown march 4 2014 this is it the final day of a long long journey paula the pump finished her job overnight and today mom goes for one last weekly visit to southlake to have the pump taken off and the picc line removed she s done everyone together now exhale we ve made light of it along the way celebrated family with cupcakes and told cancer where to go all at the same time i think every person in my family has used the line we re really good at cancer at least once we ve picked a disease to stick with but we come out swinging every time and today we can celebrate that we ve kicked it once again if you can t laugh you ll cry so we ve chosen to laugh as much as possible the o and m on top were for the littles we try and maintain some sense of appropriateness we haven t done it alone the outpouring of love and support on this blog to our emails or on coffee dates has been overwhelming whether it s dropping by to check in calling every single day when you re supposed to be on vacation or flat out insisting that yes you will be driving to the next appointment no it is not a bother and yes you will gladly wait for hours and hours while the chemo slowly pumps through it has all been appreciated not just by mom but by everyone in our family bringing smiles with a touch of flare through it all i have often thought and i know she has too how people can possible fight this fight alone it s beyond me everybody on 3 1 2 3 fuck cancer there have been hundreds of comments about mom s strength perseverance and determination and i ll agree the olympians we celebrated last month have nothing on her she s been asked over and over how do you do it her answer always with a smile and soft chuckle i don t really see any other option but i m here to tell you as we start the long process of putting this horrible experience behind us what her secret has been happy mom it s you she has drawn on your strength on your support and on your friendship you have made sure she knows that she is loved and she is needed and she is not alone and by extension you ve made our whole family feel that love too and so from the bottom of my heart thank you thank you for being there for cheering her on for checking in for keeping track and for counting down right along with us thank you for being our silver lining silver lining a friend of mom s sent this to me last week to be included in our lovefor60onthe4th countdown i thought it was an excellent way to wrap this whole thing up the best things in life aren t things love is powerful it can change everything in an instant and for a lifetime but it s something that s not to be taken for granted in fact it s often the little things the compliment the extra hug the special effort to make your loved one smile that makes love grow it s not the most expensive gift but the gift of heart that makes the difference onward and upward right

consideration to delay her another week but thankfully they recognized that might have killed her so they went ahead she has also received conformation that her picc line will come out march 4th which means after months and months of taping a newspaper bag to her arm in order to get in the shower she ll be back to normal in a matter of days and getting ready in the morning will stop being a 2 hour process you know as soon as she no longer needs a nap after putting on makeup on to the good stuff a few of you sent lots so i ll mix them up over the next few days kirsten said while instagram is a bit beyond her technical prowess taking a picture on her blackberry isn t these fat little birds remind her of her kids when they were learning to ski and skate they re supposed to be christmas
