What I Thought Was True, March 2008

In March of 2008, I suffered my first miscarriage. This is what I wrote about it. 5 1/2 years later, I have not edited or changed anything other than removing a poem a dear friend of mine wrote, because I'm not sure it's protected and I didn't want to be insensitive to her story. My emotions were raw when I wrote this and the writing isn't the best, but it's me. It's my form of healing.

Stop Asking if I'm Pregnant

No, I'm not pregnant. I'm chunky.
No, I'm not pregnant. Sometimes, I get sick to my stomach
No, it's not "time" for a family addition. I don't know when it will be, but it's not up to me.
