our new situation

just to keep everyone in the loop, lucy had her upper lip surgery on thursday - this was to repair the work done in china and to connect the two muscles into one - the surgery went well, she is home recovering, but we are sad. she is so swollen and it hurts to see her like this. we cannot even tell what she will really look like 'in the end' - but we are nervous for her. she had such a cute, beautiful little smile, we loved her little fat lip - yes, we know it had to be done, but its tough to think of that when she is all stitched up and bleeding. poor lil bugger. i am not sure we even want to show any photos of her right now.

not to be selfish, but i had to steal some of her thunder.. i have had hiccups for 7 days now. day and night, every 6 seconds. they went from being funny to suicidal. at times, i feel like i am losing my mind here. they hurt. to no end hurt. i spent the night in the ER onthursday, so we brought lucy home and i went to the hospital in her place. got some meds, but they are still here. i have moments of calm, no hiccups. i think of the days and times i wasted when i didnt have them. like relecting back on my life from my deathbed or something. i am telling you, they are driving me crazy.

so yeah, good times in the house of bevacqua.

:( so sorry- i cannot even imagine hiccups for more than 10 minutes, let alone 7 days-- i hope they find out what's going on!

and poor lucy-- i know we'll be there next year with noah- i've never had a child go thru surgery-- it's gotta be hard:(

I'm so sorry for you and Lucy!! I was just thinking of her this weekend and how I needed to touch base with you all! And the hiccups! I've never had them for more than a few minutes, I can't imagine it going on and on! Bless your heart! Keep us posted!!!
