A week and a half ago I did invitro with 2 of my frozen embryos. Yes, frozen. Isn't that so neat that they can thaw embryos and that the little microscopic embryos actually survive the thawing process!? Amazing! So for the past couple of weeks, we've been praying A LOT. And I believe my sweet family & friends have also been praying...at least I have felt their prayers...
So this morning I went in for blood work. A regular pregnancy test wouldn't work. The reason it wouldn't work is because I've been taking way too many drugs/hormones that it would definitely give me a false positive. Anyway, I waited...and waited...and waited. Until finally they called at 3:30. I didn't want them calling my work and telling me and then the next minute me having to help a patient! So they left a message on my cell phone. So as I was walking out to my car, getting ready to listen to the message, nerves and all! I hear the dreaded words...'I'm sorry to tell you....' I actually listened to the message a couple more times, not sure why?! Then I shedded a few tears. No sobbing this time, which is improvement! Then called Chris. He was sad. We were somber. Then I told him, "You know what? We have so much to be grateful for!" Of course I was still disappointed, but I truly believed what I had just said.
I then sent the mass text to family & some friends that I knew were anxiously awaiting...prob just as anxiously as I was... and I was uplifted. I am so grateful for our wonderful family & friends and their sweet words. THANK YOU. It helped.
So, you know the Bitter. Here's the Sweet. My prayers were answered. I was truly comforted. My testimony has grown.
My brother and sister-n-law heart attacked us tonight w/ yummy Bosa Donuts. How cute is that?! Thank you Spencer & Alisha :)
