So on October 21st the official
signature was signed and I am officially matched with couple! For privacy reasons I can’t give much detail
at all, but I can say this couple has struggled with some difficult
circumstances and I am extremely blessed and honored to be able to help them
have their baby!
Justin and I had our blood drawn today to
test for infectious diseases. For me
this was the first real glimpse of the process starting…my first “procedure”.
I start birth control tomorrow so they can
adjust my…cycle (is that a gentle enough way to say it for those boys that
read?). The intended parent’s (IP)
lawyer is drafting the legal contract so hopefully I’ll see that soon. From what I can tell this should be done
within the next couple of weeks. Once it’s
signed the real fun can begin.
By fun, I really don’t mean fun unless you
think jamming yourself with needles of various sizes is enjoyable. I personally do not find this gratifying. Well, maybe I do and I just don’t realize it
yet since I’ve never done it. Regardless, I fully intend on having Justin do
the stabbing. The process is in motion!
I’ve waited to post because it hasn’t quite felt real yet. Not even really now.
I’m worried to tell people and get all
excited just to have something fall through so I have to say “just kidding” to
you guys. But despite my reservations I’m
sharing because I know you guys love me and want to know. And I know you guys are praying for me which
is incredible. So even though part of me
is nervous to share news that may end up being non-news I will continue to keep
you all in the loop.
My next post will most likely be about my schedule
which I should get when I start the jabbing and stabbing.
