Much of the writing that I have done on this blog has been independent of my wife.  In fact, before around 6:00PM tonight, I don’t think that she even knew how much, how frequently I’ve been writing and how much traffic we’ve been getting here (and that of course is relative - 200 hits in a day really isn’t a lot, but to me & her it is).

But, I showed her some of the stats and I let her read some of my posts and she was moved on both accounts.  Which made me feel pretty good that I was doing a good thing (at least through her eyes).

Then, she asked me why I’m doing this.  My reply was because I hoped that someone, somewhere would take something away from it and that maybe it would make their process just a bit easier or a bit clearer as to how might go.

I just logged into my Wordpress account (it’s around 1:30AM CST) and I was prompted to accept a comment from someone who is an active reader of my blog, expressing the fact that she reads the blog on a daily basis since she is going through the process with her husband as well.

It was at that moment that the reason why I write this was validated.   On this big planet of Earth, I have at least shared some wisdom and experience of this unique and ardous process beyond just my local town and my immediate family.

So - to those of you that are in similar shoes…I wish you all the best, and I wish you happy PG thoughts and results.  I can only hope that your IVF process ends as happily as my 1st one did (and hopefully as my 2nd one will)!
