5am wake-up for 6:30 surgery check-in. So, I kiss him goodbye as they wheel him off to surgery. Less than an hour later, the doctor comes into the waiting room and announces, "It was a success, we got lots of sperm and they have great motility". I look around and notice that HIPA must not apply in this circumstance. Oh well, I'm relieved and happy and know he will be so proud to have produced such great quantities of little swimmers. Then, all of a sudden, I am extremely emotional...do we really need to do IVF? If he has such great quantity and quality of sperm, perhaps the reversal would have worked??? Perhaps I could have been spared months of injections and faking my body into thinking it was having a baby normally? Then, I am quickly reminded that we still don't have time to try - my egg supply is dwindlying as we speak. And thus, the roller coaster ride begins.
I am so proud of him. He is brave and dedicated. Who signs up for weeks of black and blue balls in order to make his girlfriend's dreams come true? Only him. My friend, my love.
So, half of our little baby sits in the freezer, waiting for it's better half...
