Since yc - a mutual friend - led me to your site - I've been trawling through your archives. i discovered you on my two year mark. (which I later discovered, is - according to research done by Dr A Domar - the peak time of depression for women diagnosed as infertile - depression which was found to be indistinguishable from those of women with cancer, heart disease or HIV - a slightly sobering fact.)It would not be an understatement to say that I was hanging by a follicle when I met legsup. And you have managed to do something that no-one else has - with your magical words and hysterical humour you have turned this awful, miserable, down-right pathetic, fucked up experience into something beautiful and special. And in some wierd way I feel almost (i did say almost)lucky to be going through this and being able to share the depths of sorrow that we go through periodically and at the same time - the intense and extreme height of hope. astonishing! And this is not to say that your sadness and loss is imbued with a special sense of meaning. that can't and shouldn't help. but just to say, as deeply as i can muster. thank you. <BR/><BR/> ("And the selfsame well from which your laughter rises was oftentimes filled with your tears.And how else can it be?

I remember skipping to my blood test in April 2004 ABSOLUTELY CONVINCED it had worked for me. To say the phone call that afternoon was devastating doesn't do justice to the desolation I felt. I had even told my husband not to come home from work because I had fantasies of surprising him with the amazing news that evening. I look back on that girl now and want to hug her and tell her it is only a matter of time...as Ace said, it is a numbers game.<BR/><BR/>That terrible afternoon, after my husband rushed home from work, reeling from the phone call where I could not speak, just sobbed into the handset, we lay on the bed and held each other and mourned the loss of both that baby and our wonderful, innocent hope. Then we went out for ice cream and sat in the glorious sunshine and watched other people getting on with their lives oblivious to our tragedy. <BR/><BR/>I see that day now as one of the best and worst of my life.<BR/><BR/>We tried all through 2004 to conceive with IVF and now, as I sit and write to you in October 2005, I am counting down the days till my little girl is born via c-section next Thursday 20 October.<BR/><BR/>When the nurse called in February to tell me I was pregnant, I think I believed her even less than that terrible phone call in April 2004. This time, we were together, and this time we lay on the bed and hugged each and could hardly speak for sheer terror at our incredible luck.<BR/><BR/>This will be you too OvaGirl. It is hard to believe now and it seems like a terribly long way away, but keep a little warm corner in your heart for the day you find out that what you have hoped for all these months and years is actually happening.<BR/><BR/>It will be you too.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10294772.post-1129172232309283112005-10-13T12:57:00.000+10:002005-10-13T12:57:00.000+10:00My heart aches for you and C.I am so sorry...My heart aches for you and C.<BR/>I am so sorry...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
