And I'm The One Complaining

About five minutes ago, our live reporter interviewed a woman at the starting line of the Philadelphia Breast Cancer 3-day walk. She is 30 years old. She was diagnosed with breast cancer at 24. She was in perfect health. She went through numerous surgeries, chemo and radiation treatments and made it to her five year mark. She then learned that the cancer had spread into her sternum and is now in her liver. She was out there with a smile on her face as she was the leading fund-raiser for this event. She alone raised over $17,000. She has no idea if she'll even survive, but there she was surrounded by loving family and friends with a huge smile on her face. She had an amazing positive attitude.

Then I thought of how I've been feeling because my perfect and healthy baby created with love with my amazing husband has to be delivered via c-section.

I have nothing to complain about.
