The hospital rooms are elegant with a flat screen T.V! The doctors speak pretty good English and have been really nice. At least I am seeing where I will deliver the twins. Well three weeks over here and I am at the hospital! :) Crazy!

Mi Vida Loca (My Crazy Life)
Well I have been sitting in the hospital for the past 6 hours humming Pam Tillis's lyrics "Welcome to my crazy life".......... because that is what it has felt like. About 10 am this morning I started having excruciating pain in my abdomen. It personally felt like I had eaten something bad and that is was just a bad case of gas! I am beginning to wonder if I have problems with milk. Anyway, I talked to our company's nurse who told me that I needed to go to the doctor since I was pregnant just to be on the safe side. In Turkey, one doesn't go to the doctor she goes to the hospital b/c that is where all the doctor's offices are located (except plastic surgery I saw a sign for that one!) I had a sonogram first to make sure the babies are fine which they are and Mark and I found out that at least one is a boy! The other one wouldn't cooperate. Then I was wheeled upstairs to an ultrasound technician to find out that I have an enlarged appendix. I am now waiting for them to do an MRI b/c they don't want to do surgery (I agree). I don't have a fever or anymore pain. I feel great now! Say a prayer for me.

ReplyDeleteGenny we are praying for you and Mark. I know this is NOT what you had in mind. I pray that you will not be in pain and the doctors will know exactly what to do. A boy is very exciting and I can only imagine that you really want to find out what the other baby is though! Love you guys!
