A Year In Review- What are your best and worst moments of 2010?

I thought it would be interesting to take a look back at this past year!
For me.........

Best:
Finding out I was pregnant, sharing the news, etc.
Moving into our new house!
Cruise to the Bahamas and Bermuda!!

Worst:
Finding out we were losing my son Chat Icon (and all the things that went along with it.. the burial .. etc)
Witnessing my grandfather's health decline

Re: A Year In Review- What are your best and worst moments of 2010?

Best:
finding out my biopsy was all clear

Worst:
-death of DH's best friend/our best man from liver cancer & the reverberations that followed
-finding out DH's best friend's brother had Hogkins
-finding out DH's other close friend/our groomsman had non-Hogkins

Honestly, while I have a thousand things to truly be thankful for...2010 is the worst year I've ever had. I've never been unable to pick myself up before but I can't seem to get to that point.

Re: A Year In Review- What are your best and worst moments of 2010?

worst was hands down, the awful hit and run murder of one of my closest friends in March.

thankfully we have had a blessed year otherwise, and I find that after having the above experience, nothing bothers me the way it used to.

life is beautiful. and short. and I try to enjoy as much of it as I possibly can...even the drab, annoying, and mundane.

Re: A Year In Review- What are your best and worst moments of 2010?

2010 is the worst year in 20 years for me.

Worst: My DH was diagnosed with cancer;
his grandmother had a stroke (not yet recovered);
his uncle was diagnosed with cancer - stage 4, little chance of recovery;
my uncle had to have emergency quadruple bypass surgery and missed my DS's christening, Thanksgiving and Christmas;

I can go on and on but I'll stop..

Best: My beautiful son was born. When I hold him I forget everything else. Unfortunately, I can't hold him all day.
My DS is cancer free. Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

Re: A Year In Review- What are your best and worst moments of 2010?

Best:
-Watching my little niece develop during her first year of life.
-Repainting my den so that I actually like the color, and continuing to enjoy making small improvements to my home.
-Our baseball road trip to Philly, Baltimore and DC over the summer.

Worst:
-Dealing with a chemical pregnancy about a year after losing my first pregnancy.
-Accepting that it is going to take medical intervention to get me PG.
-Dealing with my dad's ongoing health problems, and hearing the worry in my mom's voice every day, and feeling helpless.

Honestly, I have felt like my life is stuck in for some time now, with dealing with TTC/IF, and trying to finish my dissertation with a deadline looming over my head. I have a feeling that 2011 is going to be a much better year. Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

Best - having my DD via VBAC, something I've wanted to do for two years; my DH getting a significant raise, and both of us finding out we were secure in our jobs.

Worst - the first three months of DD's life. I was a disaster. Chat Icon Chat Icon Thankfully I have great friends who pulled me through Chat Icon

All in all it was a fantastic year Chat Icon

Re: A Year In Review- What are your best and worst moments of 2010?

Best:
Probably when we received the results of a blood test for DS and it showed he did NOT have a specific chromosomal abnormality that I had convinced myself he did.Chat Icon

Worst:
The 2 weeks it took for those results to come back.

The realization that it doesn't end there-the relief was fleeting, there could always be something else.

Re: A Year In Review- What are your best and worst moments of 2010?

this post/question has made me realize that 2010 was a lot better than i thought. i complain a lot about the mundain... but when i really think of the whole year, i really can't complain.

the best was re-connecting with SO. in february, we found each other via FB and have been madly in love. my son and he get along well. i love his kids.

i really can't say i had a worst. i think i need to count my blessings more often. i'm a rich woman

Best: birth of my healthy son

Worst: my dad suddenly dying a month later

There are other great things and bad things, but these are TRULY the one best thing and the one WORST thing that happened this year for me.
