Yes, this picture is ridiculous but I don't think we would have cared if they had dressed us in toilet paper... At this point nothing could wipe the grins off our faces! So yesterday I must say was the most amazing day of my life so far. That sounds all mushy and crap but seriously I think I may have had an outerbody experience. Let me paint the picture for you...
So we arrive at the hospital at 7:45 am and the Doc greets us and sees us back to the surgery suite where the transfer will take place. He shows us into a small hospital room where he asks us to change into our gown and scrubs and says he'll be back after he's checked out our embryos. A short tear and giggle filled 20 minutes later Doc has returned with word that we have three remaining embryos that look outstanding and we are all set to go. My heart felt like it was doing summersalts in my chest with the excitment as Jason and Doc pushed my gurney down the hall towards the OR. Doc asked Jason to wait in the hall for a few minutes while they got me set up. A few minutes later Jason came through the door, but this man was a totally different part of my Jason that I think only this moment could bring out. As he walked towards me I could see the tears welling up in his eyes and looking at each other we both knew how badly we want this to work. The procedure began and as we watched Doc place our embryos in me through the monitor we smiled and cried knowing that we've come as far as we can and everything else is left up to God. Words just somehow do not do this story justice... All I can tell you is that, even if things don't work out how we hope, this day alone was proof enough that Jason and Aaron were written in the stars.
Overwhelmed with emotion,
Aaron
(Will post more pics soon!)
I am sorry I did not get a chance to call and check on you over the weekend. As I was reading this, it brought tears to my eyes. I know both you and Jason have been longing for this day, and I pray to God that you will soon have a little miracle growing within you. I want you to know that I love you and am praying for you each and every day!
