I'm going to be a new aunt in a couple of weeks. This will be the first grandchild for my parents and my only "blood" nephew (I am lucky enough to have seven awesome nieces and nephews via my husband).
I am really excited and very much looking forward to meeting him! In fact, in some weird way, I already feel a connection to him. Living with POTS can be so depressing. As I find ways to cope, my nephew has been like this beacon in the dark for me. He has given me a renewed sense of motivation. I want to be well so that I can get to know him and I am so happy for my parents who will now have a grandchild.
I have conversations with him sometimes in my head and I like to think that in some cosmic way, he can hear me. Even if that is completely implausible and silly, it makes me feel happy to talk with him. I'm sure I will be his favorite aunt once he really can hear me. :-)
Wouldn't it be great if babies were the cure for POTS? :-)
