I wish that some people would understand that in our condition we don't need if you want to's and maybes and it doesn't matters. We need absolutes, "yes you need to start this" "No wait until" or even a simple "yes" or "no".<br /><br />But i am glad the team that normally takes care of you , treats you so wonderfully. I hope your weekend is wonderful as well.

I have been really blessed with wonderful doctors and staff, so I know how important it is. I think I drive them all crazy because I'm so OCD about things, but they never act like it bothers them.<br /><br />Praying that God ministers to you at this retreat, and I can't wait to hear how it went! And a break from the net sounds awful, but I forced myself to stay off when we were in Maui, and I didn't regret it at all. In fact, it was very good for me. I hope you find that is true too!Heatherhttp://www.heathermohr.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2273909430922264674.post-23733330518765869272010-04-09T10:47:43.858-04:002010-04-09T10:47:43.858-04:00It makes such a difference to talk with people who...It makes such a difference to talk with people who we know and are comfortable with. People who know us and what we have been through make us more at ease. Hoping for this to be a great cycle and for your levels to come down.

I'm sorry the nurse you dealt with didn't really know you (or what she was doing for that matter!)

I hope this cycle goes smoothly for you, and you get a ton of positive pregnancy tests in a few weeks. <br /><br />It is wonderful that they know you so well. The receptionist at Dominion always knew my name, and it really made me feel like they cared. It is nice to have people who care when you are going through the struggles of infertility and losing your son.Andrea and Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07615413105099865449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2273909430922264674.post-6525951430972946332010-04-08T23:35:03.324-04:002010-04-08T23:35:03.324-04:00I hope that you enjoy your retreat.

I hope you come home having many positive experiences. <br /><br />I'm hoping for the best as you prepare for the transfer. I felt uneasiness when you described your experience, and have felt that same frustration with the 'doctor/patient' relationship, albeit for completely different circumstances. I think you did the right thing. <br /><br />Wishing you an enjoyable weekend. :) Sending you hugs!Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04019133323008048190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2273909430922264674.post-57843669217071215602010-04-08T22:55:48.099-04:002010-04-08T22:55:48.099-04:00Lori,
First, enjoy your retreat in Nashville. I ...Lori,<br /><br />First, enjoy your retreat in Nashville. I know it will be hard, but you will be surrounded by those who feel just as you do. You will take so much away from this experience and I applaud your efforts in going :) I will be thinking of you sweet friend.<br /><br />As for the clinic...its frusterating when you don't have confirmation from those you "completely" trust. I'm sure that nurse meant well, but she is NOT your nurse that you have history with and what a difference that makes. I also agree with you not enduring any more hell. I suppose what you have written is what scares me the most about my own situation. I know nothing about what I am facing and know nothing about the RE I will see...other than I'm told he is good at his craft.<br /><br />I'm so thankful that you are surrounded by love at that clinic, as that's beautiful. I loved the lab tech that drew blood at my old OB's office. She was wonderful and consoled me in my worst hours. Her take was that I would grieve and eventualy close this chapter and something beautiful would emerge. I'm still waiting on her predicion :)<br /><br />Much Love to you and be gentle with yourself. Travel Safely dear friend.<br /><br />xoxo<br />AndreaAndreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06709001842788289402noreply@blogger.com
