Time Flies

Can it really be 2 weeks since I blogged? I guess it goes in waves and there are times I feel burnt out- like I need to retreat, so that I can come back, as my full, real self.

I am now on day 19 of the cancelled cycle. I could be pregnant though I am not really holding anything miraculous is going to happen right now.

In fact, I am now examining all the family building options I could have. I want to get off the roller coaster and start the phase of my life I call "family" more than to continue to struggle and fight for the things called "my genetic children." I don't know what road this journey will lead to. My secret hope is that I am one of those great stories you hear about regarding the friend that had an "oops" just as she resigned herself to another means for motherhood.

One can always hope.

Aww, Lisa.

I'm sorry. I've been on this road for awhile, and it does hurt so much.

It's hard to keep your chin up, when you keep getting hit square in the middle of it.

So glad to hear you out there!

Cycle by cycle is a hard way to live. I really hope your way happens - it will be such a miracle.
