No whining from me today

Today we found out that my husband's cousin has cancerous cells that within 5 years will be full out cervical cancer if she does nothing. Add onto that she's planning her wedding (was going to be in February now they've moved it up to November). Now she's always wanted children and her doctor has told her that she needs to have a hysterectomy in the next 2 years, so to go ahead and start trying to a baby in the next few months. Well, P.S. she found out she was pregnant yesterday (no, they weren't trying yet).

OK so you're planning your wedding, oh and by the way you have cancer, AND you're pregnant. Seriously?! I can't even wrap my mind around it all. And she lost her sister a couple years ago to spina bifida and is still reeling from that. How much can a person take?

So, no whining from me today. I'm just going to go to sleep tonight grateful that I am healthy, that I have a wonderful husband and that we have two beautiful children together. I'm incredibly blessed.
