What I am thankful for:<\/p>\n
That there is nothing obviously wrong with either one of us. At least we appear both healthy, I have good eggs, he has good sperm, I have a good uterus.<\/p>\n
That we have the option to seek treatment with medication and proceedures like IUI and IVF. At least we have choices.<\/p>\n
That we have insurance coverage. I’ve learned how rare that is in the U.S. We are very blessed to have three IUI and two IVF tries covered, in whole, by insurance. I am further thankful that our insurance\/Den’s employer added IVF coverage starting 2007, just when we are starting treatment. Thank light for good timing.<\/p>\n
That I am young. Factors on our side are good things.<\/p>\n
That we have our pets. Without them I think I would be a mess. I may be one of the special few who, had I never met my husband and gotten married, would probably have been fine without kids, with just my dogs and my cats. My little dog Zoe is a true light in my life – she makes me laugh daily, she gives me comfort when I’m sad, companionship when I feel alone. Right now I’m laying in bed with a cat laying against my leg and my dog curled up beside me. And I will never underestimate the power of their love.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
