Bring it on! I just know that there are great things waiting for all of us in 2011. And I also know that we will appreciate them so much more because of what we have been through.
Did I tell you that ML is back to work, after 2 years of unemployment?!!! There are projects lining up for him to continue working in 2011 too. I've never been so grateful. I know though that if we can get thru his unemployment, an azoos diagnosis, and the unexpected death of our beloved dog all in the same 6 month period in 2009, that we can get thru anything together.
Do you have anything fun planned to welcome in the new year? We are going to a big party with a bunch of college friends that we celebrate with every year. It is an 80's themed party and I need to hunt down some costumes ASAP.
I am so glad that I 'met' you this year Rach. Thanks again for sharing your story and for sharing so much strength and encouragement with me.
Wow! I know this is going to sound super strange but as I clicked to add my post above, I got a flash that you are going to have a little baby girl this year.
After trying to conceive for 8 months my husband was diagnosed with azoospermia. He has a rare mutation of cystic fibrosis and is missing his vas deferens. We tried IVF with TESE one time but it resulted in a BFN. We started our domestic adoption journey in January 2011 and our baby girl was born 8/15/11. She is totally worth the wait, tears, and heartbreak.
