A good day.....

I haven't given up yet.

After a two month hiatus from my meds I am back in the saddle again. I have taken three clomid doses and refilled my progesterone. I don't think it will work but why not try? I only have one more refill on the clomid and then my doctor will be done with me. Isn't that great. She writes two scripts, orders blood work a couple of times and then sends me packing. And she advertises that she helps with fertility issues. Whatever.....

We have been talking more openly about adoption. I have been on board the adoption train for many years but my hubby, Big E, has not. Since he has seen a few positive adoption experiences coming from the blogging community in the last few months he is coming to realize adoption may be a good thing for us to do. My friend's mom, K, is still telling us Haiti would be a great country to adopt from. We shall see.....

K is getting ready to leave for Haiti with some of the local Red Cross chapter next week. She'll be going to our church's school and orphanage to see what is what there. Our church has had no word yet on the extent of the damage. Right now we are busy collecting towels and sheets to be used as bandages. Time to clean out the linen cupboards! We will be sending the linens to Haiti via International Aid.

Well, I suppose I better head off to work. Looks like the sun might shine today here in Western Michigan! Today will be a good day!

That is crazy about your doctor not wanting to continue to treat you...is there another doctor that you can go to in the area that fits your needs? In regards to the sun...we definitely don't have it hear...lots of fog and grayness! So, hopefully that melts off over Lake Michigan before it gets to you. Thanks for the inspiration to make today a good day!

What I have run into in my area is that the doctors say they treat fertility when all they really do is prescribe Clomid for 6 months and then suggest you go out of town. I was hoping since my endo symptoms have decreased that Clomid would be enough. It has not been enough. The nearest fertility specialist is a two hour drive north or south. Not sure where to turn next....
We had sunshine until about 1pm then it hailed. Weird, weird weather in Michigan!
