Finally, a vacation and really bad news.

Zac and I drove down to California after being released from the hospital for hopefully the last time.  I was pregnant through all this trauma that's been going on the past couple of months and ended up miscarrying last Wednesday. I got an infection that caused me to go into early labor that night and then I had to have a D&C the next day.  After all Zac and I had been through this summer this was definitely shocking for us both.  It was an unfortunate ending to a long 14 weeks.  We decided we needed some time away from Arizona and decided to visit my family for a while.  Zac had to drive back yesterday to get ready to go back to school on Tuesday.  I am going to stay here until this Sunday and then fly back.  I am hoping that being around family will take my mind off of all that's gone on.  It's still really hard for me to think about, but I know that one day Zac and I will be able to become parents.  Hopefully in the future I will be able to see all the lessons we learned through this experience.  For now I know that we just have to be patient and things will work out. 
 
We have had so many friends call, bring dinner, and visit and we feel so blessed to have you all.  Zac and I have certainly grown closer as a couple through all of this, but we could have never got through it with out all of your prayers.  Thank you for being there for us friends and family.  We love you all!!

You are such an amazing person Becky! Thank you for sharing such sad news in such a peaceful way. I am so sorry that you have had to go through so much- we love you and we too are praying for you all!

P.S. I am so sorry to hear about your cousin's baby- I'd imagine the only way to get through it is the relationship one has with the Savior. Still, so hard.

My heart is breaking for you, Becky. Please know that I am here for you! I am just a phone call away if you want to talk, and can't wait to see you when you get back. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. Love you lots!

It's hard to know what to say. This could be the hardest thing you ever have to go through in your whole life. I hope you can one day see some good that came from it. Although, I know you had it super tough and there might not ever be any good memories or lessons learned from the summer of 2008. We love you! Were here for you and if you ever need some baby time I'd be happy to drop mine off. (JK)

Becky,

So sorry. I feel just horrible thinking of all that you've gone through. You are one tough chick and with such a great attitude!

More often than not, dreams somehow come true. Hang in there.

Hey Becky,
We love you and we miss both you and Zac. I am glad that you are able to be with your family, but I can't wait to see you again. We are so sorry for everything that you have both been through. We wish there were more we could do for you, but in the meantime we keep praying.

I'm sorry I keep calling Zac Zack. And could your new blog design BE any cuter? Love.

Eric and Jackie said...

Becky,
I cannot believe all that you have been through. You are such a strong person. I am so sorry to hear about your loss, we will keep you in our prayers.
I wish you lived closer so we could keep in touch better, and I could've been there to help out.
A volleyball reunion in the future sounds like a great idea to me, we will have to start brainstorming.

Rachel and Todd said...

You are an amazing and strong person. We love you and Zac, and we can't wait to see you this THANKSGIVING! P.S. Your blog is pretty darn cute!

I am so sorry! (This is Rachel's sister) It took us a year and a half to get our latest, and I have to say it was the hardest and longest year and a half! (Which doesn't even compare to some!) You will make amazing parents, and I have learned that you appreciate and love all the great and hard things about being parents, which some take for granted. Have a great vacation.
