The day of the retrieval I was pretty miserable and I am still experiencing a good amount of discomfort. There is bloating with this process and my ovaries are over twice the normal size. It is difficult to breath, sit up, or lay down. I have been sitting and sleeping in a recliner the last 48 hours. And my mom, dad, brother, Craig, and Margie have helped me a ton - I could not have done it without them. I won't be going to work this week and my first chemotherapy will be Monday. My goal is to rest as much as I possibly can!
Thank you all for the visits, prayers, meals, support, and love. I'm extremely blessed and couldn't have made it this far without all of you!
xoxo,
Mary Ann
