What a tough day!

I was reading through some blogs today and came across one that someone had recently written about Dr. Shannon Moorehead. I think i cried as much or maybe even more than the one that Anna dedicated to Shannon. Nikki's post was so touching.  I never got to share a pregnancy experience with Shannon due to my tumors and forced hysterectomy, but i had many visits with her in 10 years in regards to my health and surgery and following issues. I still cant believe she is gone. 39 yrs old is way too soon to go.

I had many vists with her and she also would come into the ultrasound room and see how many more "aliens" i had from my previous checkup so that we could determine a plan of action. She would always grin and laugh when i referred to them as "aliens" and then she started to call them the same since they had invaded my body.

On the day of my surgery i had asked Shannon as she was holding my hand comforting me, if i would be able to see a picture of what they looked like and she said they didnt take photo's, just biopsy them and send them to the lab for testing. so what do you know, one my 2 week visit, she has a suprise for me, other than getting me a "Suite" on the maternity floor w/ my own room, tv, shower, etc, but a picture of all 8 of my "aliens".  That was just the type of sweet, caring, down to earth person she was.

It was 8 yrs ago on June 1st as i had posted before, but i think of her daily and need to make an appt with another dr, but just have a hard time with the thought of having to see someone other than her. She was so caring and warm and funny too, but had that way of making you feel as ease.

I didnt end up getting any information in time to go to her service, so i think that is why im having a hard time getting past her unexpected death. no closure. no clue of what happened to her. Time will heal all wounds and i will get past this, but she will never be forgotten. She is now an angel looking down on all of us.  Rest in peace Dr. Moorehead.
