Blame it on the Hormones

This is a long overdue update, but, blame it on the hormones.

Our doctor is amazing. I asked her pretty bluntly if there was any hope for us. This roller coaster ride is so violent and earth shattering that, after a loss, we are always unsure about our next steps. Thankfully, our Dr. Dorsett expressed not only hope, but an aggressive plan of action. I won't bore you with the mega-scientific details, but just know that if I'm crying for no reason, it's because of the massive amounts of hormones being flushed into my system. Because of the new game plan, we do have a couple of pretty specific prayer requests. One, that there are no complications with the cycle next month. We need it to be pretty textbook and, as the doctor says, beautiful. Two, we need less than four eggs to mature. Any more than that and she would either abandon the cycle or move us to IVF and that's a (mega costly) road we're not ready to travel.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again, your prayers and support are what keep us going. Thank you isn't enough...but thank you just the same.

Thank you
