No news is good news

The goal of the day is to NOT hear from Suzanne.  She said that no news is good news!  It would be absolutely fabulous to receive financial aid for my medications.  (Not to say that we couldn't pay for the drugs on our own.)  God has been so good to us.  We have somehow been able to afford all of this so far.  Brandon handles all of our finances.  It's easier for me that way.  Handling the money seems too stressful, and I'm stressed enough right now.

The plan is to have my baseline appointment next week.  I probably should call today and schedule for Tuesday since that's my off day.  To say I'm nervous is an understatement.  Brandon had an appointment in Enterprise scheduled on Tuesday, but he told the person he was meeting that we were about to begin IVF and he wanted to be able to go to the doctor with me.  The guy was very understanding; Brandon said that he probably knew someone going through or who had gone through this. Much of my anxiety was stemming from the fear of going to this particular appointment without Brandon.  Dad was on stand-by, but I really wanted B to be with me.  He asks great questions when there.  B said that he's nervous too, but has enough distractions during the day to not dwell on it. 

We've been watching Mad Men lately.  It's GREAT!  We found it on Netflix and have been watching the entire series.  It's kept us occupied in the evenings.  For a while, all of our conversations somehow became about our fertility.  It's been nice to take a break from that...especially before we begin the marathon run of IVF!
