Roll With The Punches
Almost, but no cigar. It has been an exciting month. Baby's having a baby, 7 weeks and a day today. Tomorrow's a big day, ultrasound. Problems with the clinic. We need to set up a laboratory before the medical board approves it. After all the requirements they sent us had been fulfilled they turn around and give us another set. If two doctors inspected and approved the clinic then why didn't a nurse? A nurse who is also a nun. What to do.
I can't say time has been wasted because I don't think Leslie would be pregnant if we had gone into residency or are already in practice. But whose to say. Financially we have never really felt the belt tighten(too much), but everyone aims for something better. If we had to do it over we may have gone into residency right away. Something we may have regretted. It's a cost we are willing to pay. Baby means everything to us. I'm glad we don't have to make that decision again.
With the baby on the way every decision will be made with Leslie and the baby's health in mind. That can be a burden and may prevent us from seeking greener pastures but the grass on this side of the world is green enough for me.
Thank you to everyone who prayed for us. I know you too will be blessed. And if thing's haven't been going the way you had planned, just hang in there, you may be surpised, tomorrow is another day.
