These two words I am having a little problem with today. Since we went to bed early last night & got up at 5:00am to be at the hospital on time, just to be told that our c-section was not scheduled for today as we had been told & expected. How heartbroken was I. All I could say was, "I guess you don't get your date" to JD like it was all his fault or something & held back my tears until we got into the car & by then I was so cold I could not cry.
Anyway, we are suppose to be back up there at the same time tomorrow morning. Wish us luck & we ask for prayers that everything works out tomorrow as it should.
