When Chris showed me this email, tears literally flooded my eyes....thankyou
so much for that very kind post... Pregnancy has been a  challange for me
physically and Having physical limitations already ... well... it gets
rough...
I do get in the pool occasionally at the YMCA  but with Chris'  schedule...
it gets kind of difficult...
I take many hot baths and get massages occasionally from Chris....both work
wonderfully, but it is only temporary relief...Needless to say, I am really
looking foward to what my new PT says or reccommends:))))
..... I wouldn't describe myself as being brave for having or becomming
pregnant with this baby... I am a woman who simply wanted to share the love
my spouse  and I share and I and chose to try to become pregnant..I'll tell
you one thing I know for certain -.. Society definately has its opinions
about disabled parents (especially mothers to be )..and having CP definately
makes pregnancy a bumpier ride... but when this child, this gift, arrives
into this world... I know it's worth any bit of discomfort I endured...  And
when you are blessed with your future child I know in my heart you will feel
the same way...
Again, thankyou soooo much for thinking of me... you're a wonderful person...
Love,
Jennifer
PS... we changed the babys name to Ava Rose awhile back (shows often I
post...which i'm very sorry for now....)
