Yesterday the Parrish nurse, adult pastor and his wife came over for a visit to ``talk.`` My first lesson of the day was to not judge a book. When the wife came in she was so quiet didn`t say much, she had her Coa.ch bag and hung it on her leg instead of putting it on the floor or on the table.
I sat them on the couch right across from Gavin`s pictures. The pastor said they are very familiar. They had their own loss, a little boy named Austin 14 years ago. She obviously is still very emotional about the loss and was uncomfortable at first. 14 years ago there wasn`t nearly the resources that have been available to me now.
At the end they asked if there was anyways they could help us, what we thought we needed. That is a question that I really don`t know how to answer. I don`t know that Grief Share or another support group will help. As I learned in my DISC training this past week I kind of doubt that I would have much to say or contribute. Sure I might learn something by attending but I personally think I am coping well.
I was at the clinic this morning for my follicle scan. Will and Brennan came with because Will and I finally got our karyotyping done. Will had 1 tube of blood drawn and I had 9. Just shows how unevenly balanced this whole fertility thing is. Anyways I saw Dr T again today and she doesn`t really say what she saw. I saw by squinting at the machine that I have one at about 12 and a bunch of smaller ones. I`ll go back either Tuesday or Thursday depending on what my e2 levels are today....just waiting on a call from the nurse.
I did end up booking a follow up with Dr M. August 29!! I also found out there will be no summer shut down this year. Yeah!
