Holy cow- we are LOST!

We got an appointment with the Miracle Fund on Wednesday- it was a meeting to go over all the paperwork and fill out our application. Mark and I had to take separate cars and we got so lost. Not only were there no places to park, but once inside the hospital I couldn't find my way around. Of course Mark and I got separated and I had no way of getting in touch with him. I saw it as a sign- this was never going to happen. After being 30 minutes late, very close to tears and probably swearing under my breath; I walked down a hallway and this nice lady was coming the other way. I told her I was so lost and needed to find Esther- she smiled and said she was Esther. My sign started to fade... still frazzled and unable to reach Mark I had no idea how he could find his way here. A few minutes later in he walks.....okay, so the sign broke into pieces.

We had such a nice talk with Esther and all the fears and doubts I had prior to the meeting just washed away. Luckily I had read some other families blogs off the Internet that had gone through the Miracle Fund, so I kind of knew what to expect- knew all the steps we had to take in order to just turn in the application.

I feel like Mark and I are doing everything we can to have a baby. If this doesn't work, if we don't get accepted....it will be hard, but I can accept that. It just isn't meant to be. There is something else- adoption or maybe by some miracle we will get pregnant on our own.

Blood work

I was able to finalize my blood work this last week- the most important was the FSH test which would determine my hormone level. If it was too high the Miracle Fund would not accept us. Good news- I was just right. We submitted our names yesterday and we are just waiting back to hear when they want to meet with us.
