It's been a long time since I've updated so I thought I would share that now, almost 6 months after our diagnosis, we have decided to go ahead and move forward to IVF using donor eggs. This decision has not been made lightly, and afer giving it our all for 6 months with our own eggs, we've decided that having a baby is more important than passing on my genes.
My husband and I were recently approved for this thing called a Miracle Fund, which will pay for half of our total cycle costs. This is a huge relief financially for us and it's very exciting to think that we are that much closer to moving on with IVF. We still have to meet with an infertility psychologist at the end of August and once she gives our Dr. the thumbs up that we are emotionally ready, we will begin the donor selection process. We have decided to choose a donor through the clinic's anonymous donor pool.
I will continue to update in the future and I hope that hearing my story will help others who are struggling with infertility to know that they are not alone.
