Worst Year Ever

September 27, 2011 hopefully marks the end of my worst year ever. I hope. There is not much more that can happen to me without me cracking

Timeline for those that care

September 27,2010 - Get sent to a "meeting" at Blue Cross Blue Shield and told that I'm being laid off in 90 days unless I can find another job in the company.
November 25, 2010 - 2 days before Thanksgiving when my wife and I were going to tell our parents after 5 years of trying we had finally gotten pregnant. My wife started miscarrying. Due to the holiday this occured at home. I cannot describe the horror of that weekend.

December 27, 2010 - laid off from Blue Cross Blue Shield

January 6,2011 - My birthday, instead of celebrating, get to spend day in hospital because my wife is having surgery.

May 5, 2011 - We got pregnant a 2nd time thanks to some fertility treatments we started after my wife healed from her surgery. This time it was twins. May 5th we went for an ultrasound, No heartbeats, opted for a DNC instead of going for the natural miscarriage.

September 26, 2011 - My wife's first "child" her dog Gretchen, whom my wife adopted as a puppy and is now 13 years old is acting funny and losing weight. Took her to vet today, then on 9/28/11 took her to River Vet Specialists and got confirmation. She has a tumor in her liver. It is so large that the Vet says he can barely spot any normal liver structure left. We have gotten her on a round of antibiotics, special Canine Hepatatic liver dog food. Trying to make her comfortable. This is just hurting so bad.

I've left out some of the other stuff from this year of crap, like when I went to the 'Ard Boyz tournament our other dog had a seizure, when I went to a WHFB tournament the dishwasher flooded our partially remodeled kitchen. Our when I went to try and get a practice game in for the Chattanooga Classic, I was late and there were no opponents open except for the cheating POS Perry who I will never play again. I'm afraid to go to the actual Chat Classic tomorrow even though it's only 5 miles from my house, because I think Gretchen will probably die while I'm there. It's just been that crappy for the past year.
