My Grandfather has taken a turn for the worse. The doctors now have given him only 3-5 days to live. We have canceled our IVF plans and will be traveling to be with him and my family.
He led a full life and was a wonderful man. But he'll be gone way to soon. He was a very healthy, vibrant and strong 75 year old man.
Things never seem easy.
Parenting after chronic infertility. Our story involves working with CCRM after experiences with diminished ovarian reserve, severe male factor infertility, 4 reproductive endocrinologists, 8 donor embryos, 2 IVFs, 6 FETS, 1 fresh donor egg cycle, 1 failed agency egg donor, 15 vitrified donor eggs, 4 surgeries for her, 1 for him, 3 miscarriages, 1 chemical and 5 canceled cycles. After seven years, one amazing couple set us on a new path by choosing us to be parents for their son.
I'm so sorry for your loss. My grandmother was diagnosed with cancer and I dread the day I have to write these words on my blog. May God be with you and your family during this difficult time.
