Like you really need more of that in your life. I'm sorry for the fog and the many different emotions. I hope you can take a real break from thinking about this for a few days, though this is not the easiest time of year for it.bunnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07197167351148883584noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2385077339545542402.post-64505388123052179272010-12-22T15:07:53.859-08:002010-12-22T15:07:53.859-08:00I was thinking of you and I know that grieving too...I was thinking of you and I know that grieving too well. It's such an unfair burden to have to decide on what's next. It should be easy, it should work without having to make up our minds, and yet here we sit wondering which of the small decisions will turn us toward the future that we yearn for.<br /><br />I want that brightness very much for you in the coming year. I am so sorry for all the crap that's unfolded and I hope that there are a few moments of joy and respite during the holiday.

I know this because I started to try when I turned 40...and still am at 46. A feeling of panic sets in and it's all too familiar.<br /><br />I had a similar reaction (to yours when looking at the adoption materials) when I decided to continue on with IVF but with donor sperm. I cried my eyes out when I realized that I wasn't going to have a child with the person I loved. It's so damned hard to let go of what we want, and go for what works. Not that any of us know what the even is!<br /><br />I wish I had some words of wisdom or of comfort for you. Moving onto adoption really does entail a grieving of what "could have been" and no one can tell you when it's time to do that but your heart and that gnawing feeling in your stomach.lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06261827387771485458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2385077339545542402.post-39945858288171369242010-12-20T14:20:35.455-08:002010-12-20T14:20:35.455-08:00sending lots of love to you.
