I realized I hadn't updated and all of you have been so sweet I am sorry.
Well I did talk to her and she was very nice and very helpful. Basically since they were already high risk twins she feels that right now we need to be concerned with getting them much closer to term..which I understand....(and then I find out I am a week behind what I thought but anyway)
her suggestion was to concentrate on the twin issues and deal with the other things once we get to a point where we know Scarlett/Dorian will be born alive.
and it makes sense...Bryan still has a few questions which I am happy about he seems to be getting more involved...then the whole bleeding thing yesterday seemed to shake him out of whatever he was going through(that is whole other post though...you would not believe what he told me on thrusday).
So at this point I am hoping for the best and planning for the worst...we (really I ) have decided how we will handle it if Scarlett/Dorian is born alive and then passes away.
And I know it sonds morbid but I just can't bury my baby in New Mexico with no family around..so we will have him/her cremated and when we can afford to go back home we will have memorial service for friends and family...I haven't decided what I will do with the remains...I was acutally proud of myself that I go that far with what to do...
Now I just need to figure out how to get the rest of the family, especially Roman and Asia through all of this....not matter what happens....
My goal now is to stay pregnant and keep both babies alive until 30 weeks..still very early I know..but I feel like if I can get them at least that far they will have a chance..
So I am managing....however I will be asking for prozac once the babies get here...sounds selfish I know but I don't even care...

My daughter delivered at 28 weeks and the baby is doing awesome . She had a super rough first couple of weeks, but NICU is an amazing place and do miracles for preemies, especially micro-preemies. Good luck!
I am hoping for the best for you and your family!!
I think you have made the best decision possible Ebony. You know we are behind you 1000%.
I am so glad to hear that you got to talk the specialist. I agree with the others, you have made the right decision.
Be strong, I know you will!
I'll keep u in my prayers.
Hang in there, Sweetie. You are a strong woman and you will do what is right for your family in whatever situation you need to. I'm thinking about you and keeping you in my prayers.

You're doing a fantastic job, hun. I think as women we often go into "survival mode" and sort through things while our men just can't seem to snap out of it, whatever "it" is. I'm extremely proud of you for doing what you've got to do despite how tough it is. (For whatever that's worth.)
