Just this morning, after getting news that our retrieval will be Tuesday, it hit me that I have set myself up for some major pain. So many of us absolutely understand...you are not alone. I know this was a huge disappointment but I know you will soon find yourself excited about the FET. Many good wishes!AshPashhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02520009623500360169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2527673312539836004.post-53714791817620327892007-06-28T22:45:00.000+02:002007-06-28T22:45:00.000+02:00Tam, So sorry to hear things didn't work out this...Tam, <BR/><BR/>So sorry to hear things didn't work out this time. Nice that you and your husband were able to have some time together over the weekend. I completely understand the confusion, anger, and sadness, and the need to be alone. I tend to retreat whenever we have a setback. Walking down the halls and work and smiling as if everything is OK is just too hard.<BR/><BR/>BIG HUGS.Mindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16137863271039042064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2527673312539836004.post-48453787941111178192007-06-28T16:19:00.000+02:002007-06-28T16:19:00.000+02:00The loss of what might have been is still a loss. ...The loss of what might have been is still a loss.

Your writing has really moved me and although I have not been through IVF, I have been through 3 failed IUIs and a miscarriage in the your wanting to be alone right now with your husband. I think when we go through these kinds of struggles, we just want to sit in our cocoon where it's safe and comfortable and you should for as long as you need to. Take care of yourself and I'm sending over huge hugs and wishes for your days to get easier and for your heart to be filled with hope very soon...Here I amhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02779149039074095526noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2527673312539836004.post-18645029693828524922007-06-26T16:57:00.000+02:002007-06-26T16:57:00.000+02:00Just take care of yourself...and poor Frank--I hop...Just take care of yourself...and poor Frank--I hope he feels better soon!
