I went to see the obstetrician to see if everything was ok and healing fine. He examed me and explained to me that I had endometriosis and that I had a spastic uterus and that is what caused the issues I was having. He assured me it was nothing I had done wrong to cause what happened to happen.

The dreaded question Martin and I had was how soon could we get pregnant again or if we could get pregnant again. The doctor gave us hope. He said that we could try as soon as we wanted to try. But don't get discouraged if it doesn't happen right away and he gave us all the risk factors.

I wasn't sure I wanted to try again so soon after the miscarriage and Martin wasn't pushing the issue. I worked and came home. As time had passed I began to have issues with constant headaches and back issues. I walked hunched over. So I went to the doctors to be seen. They did a ct and an mri and I had told them about this nasty lump I felt in my breast.

They did a biopsy on it and told me my fears. Cancer it was....that scared me. Martin and I agreed surgery was best option for me. He was still getting ready for deployment and been in and out of the field problems. He was about to go to ntc for a month and then deployment would shortly follow.

So we agreed surgery had to happen right away. They scheduled the surgery and it happened at Memorial medical center in Savannah, Georgia. It was a painful time. I spent two whole days in the hospital on a pain pump.
