Fertility Blues

Today is one of those days of fertility blues. I am so tired of the treatments, testing, calculations, guessing, lack of privacy, etc. I had forgotten how intense all of this is, and the emotional roller coaster that is involved. Plus, this time I have a little one to care for so holing up in my "cave of grief" is not really allowed. I have to plug on and try to stay positive and happy for him.

Today in Young Women's we discussed how to overcome problems. One of the things that I stressed to the girls was that no amount of praying, scripture reading, obedience, etc. will have our problems go away. It just helps to soften the "edges" to allow you to experience the trial more smoothly.

It was funny to hear about the problems they are facing. To them they are so real and so large. Oh, the beauty of ignorance in our youth. I miss it some days.

C'est la vie. The sun will still rise and set and the world will still turn. I just need to learn to experience the ride.
