Childhood cancer survivor. That's the good news. Bad news? Chemo and radiation zapped my eggs leaving me infertile. Egg donors were found, several attempts were made and finally we were blessed with beautiful twin girls - born too early (21 wks, 5 days on Dec. 5, 2008). Hang out with me while we savor life with Big Baby Boy, who arrived via gestational surrogate on March 25, 2013.

Whooooosh
Hear that?
That's what left in our piggy bank. Nothing but air. We just made our final payment to the clinic, spread across three credit cards especially cleared for this purpose.
I am scheduled to begin Lupron in 11 days.
I'm slightly dizzy and I'm not sure if it's because I've never threw down that much dough in one sitting before or if things are beginning to feel real. And that's a little scary.
And exciting. But still, scary.
Whoooosh. That's me. Trying to breathe.

Oh, if only I had a piggy bank left to smash. It's all coming from the bank's piggy bank now. It's a horrible feeling to be sure. I just try to imagine that little one I might be holding one day and that helps...oh, and imagining winning the lottery...that helps too, for a few seconds..
