Hi fam. Thank you for all the love and prayers 🧡 it’s truly a miracle the baby and I are alive right now and I’m so grateful to my husband and medical team for making that happen. I’m in an enormous amount of pain and honestly having a hard time staying positive. I have an intense few months ahead of me with a healing and growing belly, and then delivery and whatever comes with that, and I just gotta say it, I’m scared. Scared, grateful, scarred, blessed. Everyone keeps telling me how tough I am but I don’t feel that way right now. Anyway, the only way forward is through and I just wanted to let you guys know how much your messages and well wishes have meant to me during this insane time in my life. So much love to all of you, this too shall pass 🧡

I'm just a random npub from far away but please know this: I love your videos and the positive, humorous messages in them. I’m grateful that you’re on the same timeline as me and that you’ve somehow decided to stick with it. All the best to you, the baby, and your man. 💜

Hi Carla. You have a big heart, and a beautiful mind. You are blessed. Take it day by day, moment by moment. You have everything that you need! Let go of the rest. You are loved.
“scared, grateful, scarred, blessed”is one of the most real things anyone has ever posted on this app. I’ve been praying for you, walker and baby because I know there are many tough months left ahead. I recognize your toughness, but also get saying that creates a dissonance when you don’t feel it. But you don’t need to feel it, you just are it. You embody it. And that’s why it’s easy for everyone to see. There’s this poem I like by Lucille Clifton that ends “come celebrate with me that everyday something has tried to kill me and has failed.” You’re alive and your child is alive and sometimes just surviving is the strongest there is to do.
I'm glad you're doing well. I remember going through something similar 4 years ago. We knew each other on Twitter back then, maybe you remember when I had my heart surgery. To this day I still believe Bitcoin Twitter truly helped my recovery. I remember opening the app, reading the comments, reacting to notifications, seeing all the love, support, and words of encouragement. Just knowing people were thinking about me and pulling for me helped my mental state in a real way. I believe that positive mindset and outpouring of love actually helped me heal. I don't know how I would have done it without it. I just wanted to let you know I understand what you're going through, the fear, the pain, the road ahead. If I can give one piece of advice is to rely on your support system. Look at how much love you have from your husband, your family, your friends, and all of us here who love and support you too. And when you're more healed, I'll send you some feet pics. I can't have you laughing and busting a stitch. Love you Carla 🫂🫂🫂

You ARE tough. That's for certain. I'm so glad everything was taken care of in quick fashion. Being in recovery does feel weak, and it can make the future seem like a drag. It's entirely possible to be at peak health and performance again. Keep taking care of yourself, and receive any support given.
Thoughness is not proven by not having moments of weakness, it's is proven by enduring and overcoming said weaknesses! Only the fools and those that have not been through hardship have felt no weakness. Keep going, it will get better!
