The End.

Just got the call.


Negative.


Although it was what I expected, I hoped for a crazy "one in a million" positive outcome.


It's the end of the road.  The end of my dream.  For many years now my identity has been wrapped around conception.  Unfortunately, as a child, I had no idea that my dream of having several children would become a difficult journey with so many road blocks. 


I am heartbroken.  I want a "do over" - but I know that won't happen.  And I'm tired of dreaming of things that will never be.

  13. I am so sorry. I know how hard it is when you want a third child so much even though you already have two amazing children. People can be critical of someone longing for more children even if they already have a family, but they don't know how it feels to have a dream not fully realized. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
