Hi friends. I hope you all are doing well in this pandemic. I know I've been MIA for a little while, and today, I'm ready to explain why. I'll warn you my story may be triggering for some, so if you have any issues reading about pregnancy and pregnancy loss, now would be the time to stop reading.

As some of you know, I have endometriosis which causes infertility issues, so it came as a huge and happy surprise when my fiancé and I found out that we were expecting a few weeks ago. We had about two blissful weeks, dreaming about what our baby would look like and what features it would get from each of us. Unfortunately, last week our hopes were crushed when we found out that the pregnancy was an ectopic pregnancy, and I had to have surgery to have it removed.☹️

It has been a pretty tough week for the both of us, not only going through the loss of the baby we thought we were going to have, but also having surgery and working on recovering from it. It's been really hard to keep my head up during all of this, and I'm not gonna lie, I'm not sure I'll ever get over the sadness I have about it, but I can say that I am learning how to cope with it all. Luckily, I have lots of family and friends that have been helping me get through this tough time, and I'm blessed to be in a profession where I have several healing techniques available to me to help with the physical and mental healing.

Unfortunately, it will take me a while to fully heal from my surgery, so for now I am resting. I ask that you keep my fiancé and I in your prayers, and please be patient with me, as I am not able to create any new yoga videos on my website right now, but as soon as the doctor clears me and I am healed enough to create more videos, I most definitely will. (There are still currently videos on the website available to watch and follow right now, if you would like to check them out.)

P.S the first picture is my fiancé and I before the surgery (he told me to smile), the second picture is a more accurate before surgery picture in my hospital gown with my sad/scared face.

I will keep you all updated when I am healed, until then stay healthy and safe♥️
