Another Hurdle

I had the Laparoscopy surgery on Friday, the 15th to see if they could repair the blocked Fallopian tubes. Paul, and my mom and dad were all at the surgery center, and were with me the whole time until the wheeled me back for surgery. The surgery took a little over 2 hours. When I woke up in recovery, they asked if I wanted to see Paul, and of course, I did! He came over to my side, grabbed my hand, and kissed my forehead. I asked what they did, and he said, "we'll talk about it later." I said, "they took them didn't they?" I knew instantly. I think I honestly knew on Wednesday at our pre-op appointment what the results would be. I don't know how, I can't describe it, but I just knew. But, it was confirmed on Friday. I am a 28 year old woman with no Fallopian tubes. As I sit here writing this, it seems so surreal; it has been very hard for me to wrap my head around all of this.
Now, I know some of you are saying to yourself, "Oh, well, it's not that big of a deal, you can just do IVF, right?" The answer is: yes, I am a great canditate for IVF..but it's not "just do IVF" there is A LOT that goes into the IVF process, lots of medicnes, lots of money, lots of monitoring, lots of poking and prodding.... We have an appointment witht our specialist in a couple of weeks, and we will get more information at that time. In the mean time, I am praying for peace and understanding.

I am so, so, SO very grateful for my amazing husband!! He has been my ROCK, and my soft place to land! I love him more today than I did the day I married him; I'm not quite sure how that is possible, but our God is amazing! I'm thankful for my parents and my sisters, they all have been there to support us through it all, and I love them so much! Thanks so much to everyone! I can feel all of your prayers, and appreciate all the texts, calls, and more!!

Like Paul told me in recovery, this is just another hurdle.....I think I told him I'm tired of hurdles, if I didn't say it, I meant to! But, I know God has a reason for this, and I just keep my mind on the finish line...."our baby!"
