progress

Our clinic has reviewed Clarissa's medical records and everything looks fine. The next step is to schedule an appointment for Clarissa's screening tests. It all seems to be moving at a glacial pace, but it looks like we're on track that to do a transfer by the end of the summer. In general, I try not to think about it too much, because when I do, I get giddy and sick, swinging wildly between hope and gloom.

Awesome! Will it (note the optimistic use of "will") be a fresh or frozen cycle? Continued good wishes, and hope.

Well I'm going to be excited and hopeful for you. Such good news. Keep it coming.

I'll take giddy and hopeful, like sara, thankyouverymuch.

Magpie: It, uh, will be a frozen cycle.

Julia said...

Sounds about how I feel when I think of trying again...
I like Sara's take. Will try to adopt this attitude, for both you and me.

i can't fathom how freakin' scary this must be. steel yourself and know that there is a lot of hope out there for you.

I too know that feeling between swinging between hope and gloom. I too have a transfer sometime this summer and I'm excited but extremely scared at the same time. Good luck with your next cycle!!

The end of the summer? That's fantastic! I'm going to be sickeningly hopeful for you. Taken together with the rest of the commenters, I think you can feel free to be as gloomy as you need to be.

Understandable Niobe - the conflicting emotions are absolutely understandable... Keeping hope alive for you.

i'm standing on the side of giddy and hopeful too...

which is a hell of a lot easier to say from this side of the gorge you're standing in front of, i know.

but still. on your side. when you're giddy, we will be giddy with you. if the gloom comes, we'll still be here, listening.

Day at a time Niobe. Easier said than done....I even hate saying that!

Oh, those mood swings. I hate paying that price. I'm all for sublimation and distraction, personally.
