Farewell Infertility

Dr. Karande shook my hand and said, "we shook hands when we first met, and now look where we are!" Maybe I needed to look for answers to find that my questions were unnecessary. That sometimes life is hard and it doesn't matter how good, self sacrificing or righteous we are. The real purpose is survival. What do you do when you can do no more?

"You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, 'I lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along'." -Eleanor Roosevelt

My baby is healthy -thriving! My body is healthy - "uneventful"! In the words of Dr. Karande. I now finally feel like I can soak up every minute of this blessing I have been bestowed. I have a peace I have never before experienced. My soul is at rest. I am living every day to the best of my potential. I am so thankful for this life I have been given. I cannot wait to discover the gift I have to share with the world. For now, I just hope to be a little beacon of light in this dark and sad place we live in. There is so much out there. There is so much in store for us. I feel really, truly happy.
