One more step closer.....

March 14, 2012 at 7:30 AM we arrived at our first of three doctors appointments that day starting with Dr Shapiro. We had to complete our first Ultrasound and blood work to allow Dr Shapiro to gather information on Sara in order to start our first cylce of IVF April 11th. At this appointment, Sara was placed on a prescription to get her body ready for everything to come. We scheduled our next blood work appointment to check how things are going March 26th.
  Next it was off to Dr. Lori Logan our Genetics Councelor. She went over all our previous blood work we had completed in St. George. Sara was tested for 34 different Cystic Fibrosis genes which she was negative as a carrier for. Gathering that information allowed Dr Logan to know what our chances were conceiving a baby with Cystic Fibrosis. We were very pleased with the results and decided to move forward.
  Our last and final doctors appointment was with Dr. Sussman our Urologist that is going to complete Clints procedure April 22, 2012. Dr Sussman reviewed all of Clints bloodwork he had completed and was very happy with all the results. All of Clints levels were in normal ranges and he was very optimistic with moving forward with Clints procedure with no complications.
   After our full day of jumping from dr to dr we decided to finish the day up with some PF Changs. At the end of the meal they always bring out some fortune cookies to top ya off. After opening up mine, I got chills down my spine. I leaned over and showed clint and it read, " your dearest wish will come true within a month" This was our sign of many that everything is going to happen exactly the way it should. We're so excited to continue our journey.
