I've always been so excited about the day when I would become a mother! I can't think of anything else more fufilling in life then to be a mom. When Owen arrived it was the best moment of my life! Sooooo to get to my vent. A month after having Owen I began to have seizures. We eventually had to move in with my parents because I was having so many a day! I went to the doctors and after an MRI they discovered I had a rare brain tumor! What the stinkin heck...all I want to be is a mother and I can't even take care of him myself! It's so depressing...I feel like I'm missing out on so much! I'm married and we've had to live with my parents now for 2months! And today I found out it would probably be another month until I could get into the Mayo Clinic. I'm just sad and I don't like to talk to my hubby about it because I know its already a lot for him to handle....so thanks for taking the time and letting me vent. :)

    Thanks ladies! I do have an amazing family and husband. I would've lost my sanity by now without them lol. My husband gets up most nights with Owen and my mom and dad watch Owen during the day. Thanks for the prayers I need those! Some days are just worse than others....having a headache for 4months straight hasn't helped! Thanks for the encouragement, it means a lot! I needed to finally complain to someone lol.

    I'm so sorry :( is it life threatening? I'm praying for you. Stay strong
  • BabyluvBabyluv
    Thanks! @proudmomma ....they're not sure I have a realy rare case apparently. I have what's called a ventricular meningioma (hope thas spelled right) most ppl have them around the brain, but mine is in the middle of my brain. So they don't know if it's cancerous or not. That's why I'm hoping to get into the mayo clinic they deal with more stuff like this. Where I'm at only one doctor in town has ever seen one like it LOL I told him I always knew my brain was special!

    Just got some very exciting news this morning at 8am! The Mayo Clinic called to let me know that they had a sooner opening and that if we could get there Monday they would get things started! so we're leaving Sunday! So excited to finally find out some more information...a little nervous but so ready! Thanks ladies for all of your encouraging words and prayers they have helped so much! Clearly since it was going to be a month before I could get in and all of a sudden there was an opening. Maybe soon things will be back to normal and I'll be able to be a better mommy to Owen. I'm so thankful for my family and my life it's truly beautiful! I'm so thankful for everything I have!
  • usafwife_21usafwife_21
    I love how positive you are during such a rough time. You do have a special brain :) I'm glad that they found a sooner opening, and I hope that whatever information they provide to you is postive! Owen is lucky to have a mom just like you! You better stick around :) Good luck, sending hope and love your way! :D
  • MommyLovesSparkleMommyLovesSparkle
    Aww yaya :) you WILL get better and life will be back to normal soon! Keep praying mama and you'll see how fast things are going to look up :)
  • BabyluvBabyluv
    @usawife_21 yeah I would like to think it is special haha and I'm so glad they found a sooner opening also I was about to just go up there and sit in the E.R. haha. Thanks God, my dh, Owen, and family are the only reason I stay positive. They make me so happy :)!

    @Claudia YAY! I know! I'm hoping they will come up with something where I won't have to be on seizure medication forever cuz that stuff is awful!
