I finally get why my mom was so worried.

A friend told me to check out this blog for liz and matt, http://www.mattlogelin.com/. She died suddenly the day after giving birth after long term bed rest and standing up for the first time. So sad, and yet I couldn't stop reading. Pulmonary embolism, I thought that was what it was after my friends description. 60% of people die instantly, 10% of people die when their symptoms are misdiagnosed, I was one of the remaining 30% that find someone who figures out why you can't breathe, feel like you have a rock on your chest, and cough up blood occasionally every day. That was what I had in May last year. Pulmonary emboli, one in each lung. It makes me cry now to realize yet again how fortunate I am to watch my girls do gymnastics. Maybe I will try extra hard to be nice to my hubby today, despite the overwhelming urge to scratch out the eyes of anyone who dares cross me....that's the PMS talking. I am truly blessed to have a happy, healthy family to take care of every day. I should go cuddle with Dan...
