A bump in the road?

I'm sitting here in tears, wondering why it's always me. I have a lot going on in my life that is good, I should probably focus on that, but what matters to me now is that these babies that we've tried for for a long time my be slipping away and that there is nothing we can do. I've comforted so many women in my situation, but it still doesn't make the burning in my throat go away or the ache in my heart. Kevin tries, but what can he say... He simply hugs me and listens while I cry. Promises me that he doesn't blame me. We were making such great plans for our wonderful new family additions. We were excited, despite what some others around us thought that we ought to be feeling.

We're just getting our marriage back on track from our other losses and from my near death experience with my ruptured liver. He's just now beginning to feel it's safe to be around me again.

Please say prayers, cross anything you can, and hold us close in your hearts tonight.

I will let you know how it all goes tomorrow...
