Praise God!!!
Surfer and I went in for his tests in the morning, and then went to my follow up ultrasound with Doc. Doc was amazed to see that the cysts were less than half the worrisome size that they were last week at that time. He has ruled out surgery (can I hear a big YEAH!!!) and said that there should be no problems at this point going forward with IVF at the start of my next cycle!
This great news buoyed our hearts and has allowed another glimpse at hope. It was wonderful leaving Doc's office with smiles on our faces, instead of streaming tears.
The next step is an SHG (wet ultrasound) on Tuesday to check the interior of the uterus and make sure all looks good in there. Then, if it's A-OK, we meet with Doc and the Embryologist to discuss the IVF process. Then, we begin!
We spent the day just enjoying the moment - relishing the day's good news, and thanking God for it. As we were taking out the trash last night, it began to rain and as I turned around, the most gorgeous, vibrant double rainbow appeared in the sky. Two complete arcs, that went from one side of our building to the other! Immediately, I knew that it was yet another sign to remind us that God has promised us to always be with us, to walk with us through pain and joy. We had never seen a rainbow so vibrant before. I found a picture that almost captures it.
In this process, and I guess in life, each step is a milestone. We have made it to this milestone, and are thankful to celebrate God's goodness to us today.
