We Do Still Exist

I haven't dropped off the face of the earth. I realized it's been several many days since my last post. I haven't had a lot of words lately. We're trying to do our best at being proactive with everything that's going on. I won't lie...we're exhausted. I have struggled to find ambition each day to keep positive thoughts rolling through my mind. There's just so much going on. The "To Do" list keeps growing.

Cayman is doing well though. Her smile has brought so much delight to Mike and I. She has kept our household from crashing under the stresses of life. Mike and I were trying to process everything that has taken place for us in just one year...it's a lot!

Pregnant...Extremely sick, unable to work...hospitalized for dehydration...Cayman's Hydrocephalus diagnosised at 20 weeks gestation...putting our house up for sale...moving to another state...a new job for Mike...more birth defects found at 28 weeks gestation ...Cayman's birth...given general anesthesia and missing Cayman's birth...stomach surgery...shunt surgery...3 weeks in the NICU...4 shunt revisions...selling our house...moving out of Mike's parents' and into our apartment...Mike losing his job.

All that in just a year!

We've had a lot of busy days lately...suddenly our free calendar has been filled up.

I have no direction in this post. Even now words are just not coming to me. I am doing my best to keep my head above the tide that has come in. I wanted to post though to let everyone know we're doing alright and hanging in there. Mike's been busy getting his resume around and sending it out.

I promise I'll do a better job blogging. I have a lot of cute pictures of Cayman that I'll post real soon. I'll save that for later and use it as my momentum to get back on and post real soon.

I am grateful to all of you, our faithful readers. Your love and prayers are getting us through these times. Lots of love to you all!!
