So.
Much as I feared. Went back to work and . . .
NOONE READ THE FLIPPIN EMAIL.
The email that announced my miscarriage. So I spent the day traumatizing people with the news as they looked horror stricken and then tried to lean in for hugs or something.
Spent the day hiding. With my office door shut. I'd open it for patients of course. But I didn't want coworkers to stop by. Some ignored the shut door and knocked anyway. I gave minimal eye contact and said cliche things.
Then, Mr. Hall and I talked when I got home. confirming our plans to not get pregnant again. Then we talked about adopting. Foster to adopt. He wants to wait. Which I understand. I'm not anywhere near ready to start researching yet.
Except I have. I've been reading books on the subject for years. Even back when I was fully fertile and exploding with babies. He said we have to wait six months. It's true. I'm nowhere near the healing.
Then he said, "ya know" "we'll eventually have to stop somehow." Meaning we just can't be adding children forever. Which really sucker punched me.
What the hell else am I suppose to be doing if I'm not adding children to The Tribe Called Hall?

Develop more flavors?
Alright, off to dinner with some women from my church.

Oh my friend!! I just caught up now. I am so so so sorry. I don't know what to say. What the hell is there to say? Lying there while they searched for the heartbeat. Impending sense of dread. The worst moment of my life. the moment that haunts me always. I am so sorry you had to experience that. Ah I wish I could say something. The only thing to say is that your baby is in Heaven and you'll see him/her some day. Thinking of you xxx
hugs to you Caz!
it's getting better.
i promise.
hugs
!
i'm so sorry, honey.
See, i dont come around for a bit and then i read this...
hang in there, kid..
I can empathize on only one thing here. No one reads my e-mails either. I could write a note to the whole office saying the bomb explodes at 3:14pm.....send it out the day before, and every last co-worker would perish.....it is sooo frustrating.
Hang in there....my door is closed more than it is open.
I do find the no-one reading the e-mail thing weird. Maybe that's just me, though. I can't leave anything unread in my inbox and now I've got 2 e-mail streams on my iPhone I can indulge my addiction absolutely anywhere.
Consider yourself remaining admired.
