Hey from Atlanta!

Last minute link-up with Kelly's Korner Blog today!  Just clicked on her blog and saw she was doing a national link-up, and was excited to see how many people were in the Atlanta area!  If you're just visiting for the first time, here's a little background on me:

*Just recently moved to the Atlanta area from Kansas

*mom of eight (YES- all mine & my hubby's/ no- not Catholic or Mormon, yes- would love more!)

*we are homeschooling everyone for the first time ever

*celebrating 21 years this year of being married to my high school sweetheart

*about to attend the high school graduation of our 2nd oldest, and still have one in diapers that is still nursing at night!

*we drive a 12-passenger van -get that ? all the time too ;)

*have a teenage daughter that has severe endometriosis and recently underwent a radical new surgery here in Atlanta to rid her body of the disease

*I am an Army brat- have lived all over the world and have moved over 20x in my life- hoping to call Atlanta home for the rest of it ;D

Hello! We moved from Chicago to Atlanta area last fall. It's been a big change!

I don't live in the Atlanta area. I live in California. I read your blog all the time. Your family is beautiful. I have a 25 year old daughter who suffers from endometriosis. She has two children 2 and 4. At her last visit to the obgyn. She was told that she can get pregnant again and have another child or have a complete hysterectomy. They decided to have another child. (During pregnancy she does not suffer from the endo.) Then her only option would be the complete hysterectomy. I don't want to see her go through that as she will be forced into an early menopause. If you have a second, I know how hard a second can be to come by for you as you are very busy. I was wondering if you could please pass on the dr's name that helped your daughter.
Keep up the fun blog.
Have a great weekend.

Hi Cathy- the doctor is Dr. Sinervo and he's with the Center for Endometriosis Care. The website is http://centerforendo.com
Send me an email if you have more questions- I would be happy to help and have had many women contact me already!! The surgery seems to be a success, and we have high hopes for a bright future for Allie- there is hope!!!!! I really need to do a post about her progress- I'll try to get one up this weekend for all those who are wondering how she's doing- I get lots of emails about her!

Wow! I'm new to your blog thanks to the linky of large family link up! I am from Atlanta, was living in missouri for 3.5 years, just moved to Charlotte, NC and actually am in Newnan with my family for a few weeks while my husband is in Oklahoma for a while training. :-) Small world!

I would LOVE to have 8 kids... that's my dream number. God seems to have other plans for us though so we'll see! :-)
