I called, and let's say, the news wasn't good. But, the news given made me and J discuss infertility again. It really had been a while that we discussed that topic. Can't say I missed opening Pandora's box, but what's done is done.
There is a plan.
I'm going to stop writing this blog now. Seems like the perfect time really. I'm not going to go too far though. I just feel the need to finish this story about how we tried, failed and succeeded to conceive the star, how we were pregnant and gave birth to the star and how much she enriched our lives. This blog is about her. What lies ahead in our infertility journey isn't about her (indirectly it is of course, we fought many battles having her, many of which we won't have to fight again to have another child).
So the end it it. I actually going to attempt to blog anonymously in the new place, but I'd be delighted if you wanted to continue to read. Really, I need all the support I can get, and I know of no other community being loving and supporting like the infertility community is - always. Leave a comment to this post with your e-mail address and I'll mail you where to find the new blog.
Good bye and Thank you so much. You all have saved my life more than one time. Many of you I have grown very attached to and I keep in my thoughts and my heart. Thank you!
I'm sorry about the not good news... I'd love to follow you to your new blog, if you'll have me! Wishing you all the best as you chase your second star!

I'm sorry the news was bad, but it's good that you have a plan.
I'm trying to keep the longing for a second child in one drawer and my relationship with my daughter in another, I guess that's what my blog is designed for as well. No idea if it's working.
Anyway, I would love to follow along to your new place, if you'll have me.

Is there a new blog? I already know the ending (and how lovely she is!), but would love to fill in the gaps! Which as we speak, I need to fill you in with our story too! And erm, your gift is on our dresser in The Hague... We're now back in Damascus. Big oops! Will somehow get it across!

N,
I thought I had contacted you, but I guess I didn't, because I can't for the life of me find your new blog. If you're still checking, and you'll have me, can you send me the info please?
