Hi Lori,

I know by being able to talk with all my new endosisters this past week on this forum - that my attitude has changed - for the better. I am so thankful to have endosisters to talk with about treaments, pain medications, symptoms, doctors, etc. My family and friends are great - but of course - they can only say "boy, that sounds bad" or "so sorry to hear you are having these problems" - all the while I know they just wish I would not bring it up and talk about it - but I need to talk about is - thus, I am thankful to women like you who share such personal and intimate problems and situations. I hope that you get lucky with your new RE - maybe we can get our bodies healed and with God's help -both of us get those babies we dream of! I am tired of feeling "reproductively broken".

Lori, I will keep you and your husband in my prayers - pray for me too - only two more days until my surgery - mentally I am actually looking forward to it - I think I need some answers for my sanity! Phyisically, I am a little nervous - but I have a wonderful husband who will be with me!

Take care everyone! Thanks Lori - for writing back to me so promptly! Sincerely, Angel Kevin Farnsworth wrote:
