Initially it started out as a rather tough weekend because 2 people I know have given birth in the last 2 days. I wonder when it is going to be my turn (and whether it'd happen at all even). There they are going to hospitals to deliver their respective bundles of joy, and here I am going to the hospital for fertility treatment.
For the next 2 weeks, I have to wait for the outcome again. It is nerve-wrecking and tiresome... and I totally dread another failure.
The only saving grace was a surprise that came from a friend whom I haven't seen in a really long time. If I'm not wrong, the last time I saw my friend was at her older child's first month celebration, and that baby is now a school-going child and even has a little brother. We have drifted apart for a while because we are each busy with our own lives, but when she found out about my 2 pregnancy losses, she contacted me and we got back into contact. I guess as a mom herself and having gone through 2 pregnancies which posed some challenges, she knows how it'd feel to be in the shoes of a mom who is worried about the viability of her pregnancy and the well-being of her baby. I am happy that at least she's now got 2 healthy and very good-looking kids.
She dropped off 3 packages over at my place late Friday evening... I was totally surprised and had no idea what to expect.
Yes, now I have more to add to my Willow Tree collection! They are now proudly on display with the rest... Thank You, Bee, for the lovely surprise, and more importantly, for your friendship and support.
