Prayers being said for Morningstar, that the surgery was successful, that she's not in too much pain, and that her recuperation is quick and uneventful.

Thank you all so much! You are so sweet BamaNana to post a prayer for me and my family (she has made my BIL a memorial DVD with pics and music, completely for free, and sent it over night at her own expense! what a lovely lady to reach out to a total stranger!)
I didn't know I was pregnant, in the back of my mind I knew I might be but I was busy with Christmas and then of course my BIL died so unexpectedly on Christmas Eve. I had some pain a few days ago but with everything going on I just ignored it and figured it was from stress and not eating. On New Years Eve I just went down with horrible pain. I actually still thought it was stress and maybe gas. By around 2 in the morning my husband had had enough and said I was going to the hospital right now. So we went, I didn't want to go, and told him I would just feel stupid to have to pay so much money to have them tell me I have bad gas (I couldn't believe it was 1-1-08 and I would have to pay my new deductible! My husband said that was a stupid reason not to go to the hospital!) Anyways, I didn't wait long in the ER waiting room because my blood pressure and pulse weren't good. They took me back, pregnancy test came back positive, I went up to ultrasound around 4 in the morning and not surprisingly I was in surgery in a few hours after that (had to call in a GYN and get me an operating room). The doc said she found about 1 cup of blood in my abdomen plus a large blood clot (about 5 inches oval) with fibrous tissue behind my uterus that they thought was the pregnancy that burst out of my tube. Because it was such a mess in there I was in surgery for 2 hours, my poor husband was crying by the time I got back to my room (he's not much of a cryer) they said it would only take 30min or 1 hour, they just didn't realize there was so much stuff to clean up.
I am doing well though. I really really wanted to go home so they released me last night around 5pm and I've been in bed ever since. They made me go in this morning for a blood test to make sure my numbers were going down (they are!) because there was so much gunk she wasn't 100% sure she removed the pregnancy but all looks well.
What a drama my life has become! I am just glad that I will be well enough for our memorial this Friday. My sister is not doing well, she hasn't made it out of bed at all. We have her boys tonight and a friend is staying with her. We all don't know how long she should close herself off in a dark room. She is refusing to see almost everyone. Maybe after the memorial we can get her dressed and trying to take care of the boys a little bit.
Thank you all so much. What a loving special group you all are!!

I feel so bad for you all. I hope you have extra help besides your DH. That's a lot to have to cope with. You must be at your whits end.
Just know that we are all praying for you and your family and thinking of you.
Hugs,

Maybe after the Memorial, you can take her somewhere... away from the house. A park or somewhere totally away from people. See if she'll open up and scream, yell, cry, get some of it out... remind her that she has to think of the boys now. They need her to be strong. I could see the love of their daddy on their precious little faces. The older boy seemed to idolize him.
Ask here how others coped with the loss of a spouse. I only know when I lost my dearest friend, I did the same thing your sister is doing. It sent me into a deep depression for almost 6 months. 
God Bless You Morning,
My heart goes out to your whole family.

I'm so sorry to hear this, but glad you got to the hospital before it got even worse! I'd been wondering how you were doing -- am glad to see that you are back to posting.
Will continue to pray for your SIL and the boys -- I know it's hard, but she's got to start thinking of them. You all have been on my mind a lot.
