Aug 14, 2017 15:47

Okay. I am writing this post right after the last one, but I will post it tomorrow because I don't want to make too many posts in one day, especially since the last one was quite dry. If you missed it: HERE is a full on summary of my 2017 so far.

My last official random update post was posted on the 17th of July and it was written in ah hotel room ( Read more... )

Sucks about the flights, but it's good that you knew ahead of them so you could get it fixed!

Glad that things are going well with the baby...and that Italian Doctors seem to have a better idea of what's going on.

I love the idea of a What I Have Learned sort of post :)

Apparently it's a good idea to give the airline all your data so that can contact you! I was very impressed with them... No one knew at the airport but I did... It definitely saved me...

I think that if Doctors don't have to worry about money and insurances they can be better at their jobs. He knows he will get paid no matter what, and that the tests are not that pricy (in the us my urine tests cost me around 500$ here I spend 3 euros if I go private) so it's easier for him and he can ask for extra stuff just to be certain of things!

I think that since I have the chance to see and live in 2 different systems it could be interesting and create a dialogue about how it works in other places or help who is or will go through some of these things! :D Also I know tons about laundry (thanks to my old job and also how to fix/clean things) and it would be fun to put down some tricks

I know what you mean about the two different systems...as I miss the Canadian health system a lot.
Thankfully I have good insurance thru Mike's company...but I don't know how long he'll keep that up, he said until the divorce actually goes thru, but I have no idea if he'll keep his word.

I love tips for fixing and cleaning things!! haha :))

If I might ask... How long until the divorce is official? I hope it will be over after you get the green card sorted out because insurance for green card holders is quite bad! (am I remember correctly you are going into the second year of your permanent residency??? I remember we talked about it a little bit a long time ago... But I might be confused... I get confused often LOL! xD

Ugh, flight problems are the worst! I'm glad you made it back safely and that things are going well! I hope Eric and his siblings can get some help for his mom, that sounds like way too much for his dad.

Thanks! I am so happy it's over LOL!

Yes, his step dad is not going to be able to keep doing what he's doing forever... He's such a nice man, he loves computers and he does this DVDs of music videos with his fishing adventures to keep and send to his friends and he loves photoshop and spends a lot of time learning how to do things through tutorials! And he is an amazing reader. He reads like a book a day... But I should say UDED TO because taking care of his wife is a 24/7 job now and he has a little time for himself... She calls him on the mobile even to get a glass of water and he jumps up and go! I think it's not fair on him when they can have a nurse in the house helping out. They can afford it, they have a cleaning lady, but my mother in law it's so stubborn! This is not the way to live for both of them!

You've been so busy! Glad you like the og/byn and Eric will be back home soon.

So sorry to hear about Eric's mom.

Looking forward to watching/experiencing this baby journey with you. (I still love your choice of name. Mom was commenting that people were getting too weird with baby names, but I told her yours and she thought it was a lovely choice.)

I'm glad I found the perfect guy for the job! :D

I will make a baby post soon, as soon as I have my appointment and I hope I'll be able to share a lot of fun stuff about it! And I will definitely talk about what I've learn during this pregnancy as soon as it's over... I think I'll try to talk about the 40 days pos partum thing too because NO ONE KNOWS what happens then and I think it can be interesting, but don't worry I won't overdo it and share TMI xD

Wow, the time has gone so fast and soon you will really be a mother! :D

I hope Eric's mother can be convinced too. I know from when my grandma was dying that taking care of her was very hard on my mom and her sisters, and that was just for a few months.

Your friend lost her baby at nine months?! That is so awful!

It feels like an eternity to me but yes, if I think about it time is flying and I bet the last weeks will go even faster! That's scary because I honestly don't know how to do any of it LOL! I really hope this maternal instinct will kick in and I will be able to understand my baby! I know I should read about it but I find it so difficult ( ... )

You'll learn, it'll be okay. I wouldn't know what to do really either.

I hope his brother can do what you said.

That's still terrible. :(
