IVF#2 - Day 6

Total Shot Count - 6

Side Effects - Nothing on day 5 or 6.  I'm really feeling good which is awesome because the first few days I was so tired I could hardly keep my eyes open.  Praise the Lord for renewed strength.

I'm counting the hours until Friday when I get to go back to the doctor for an ovary check.  Still praying hard for no cyst so I can start the stims on Saturday.  Please pray with me as this day is getting closer and I'm getting more and more worried.

**********

Today was a ruff day for me emotionally.  Not because of IVF or anything that comes along with it (so far IVF has been a breeze ha-ha).  But for some personal reasons.  It's days like today I am reminded just how precious my dad is.  I think about his life and what he's done, whats he's overcome and just how wise he truly is.  I'm grateful that God spared him 5 years ago when we were told he wouldn't live.  But he has and it's days like today I am reminded why.  He makes things that seem impossible, possible.  He makes even the worst of days feel just a little bit better.  And he makes pains that can't be fixed by anyone else feel more bearable.  I'm grateful for a father that knows whats best and wants whats best for those he loves.  And I am grateful for his example - it makes loving my Heavenly Father so easy, so real, so right.

Thank you Lord for the honor of being born into a family that knows and loves you.  I understand that I can not choose who my parents are but I grateful that you gave me the ones you did....you are a God full of grace and mercy.   Please give my soul the rest it needs and I seek to trust you in EVERY area of my broken life.
