psalm 37:5

"Commit your way to the Lord; trust in Him, and He will act."

- Psalm 37:5

I wrote this on Friday, April 29th 2016, and it has been literally one of the happiest days of our lives. At around two in the afternoon I missed a call from a private number. I knew it was either work or our contact for the test results out of Mount Siani Hospital. The three week mark for our long awaited results lands this coming Monday, so I knew there was a possibility that phone call was regarding them. I listened to the voice mail and immediately knew. It was a long and detailed message but the main points delivered were that the test was clear and negative! I didn't even listen to the rest of the message but dropped to the floor and immediately started crying out to God...(more like an ugly cry)... but none the less, praising Him for answering our prayers. My heart was flooded with the spirit knowing that my trial was necessary to advance our relationship and that He had this the whole time. He wanted me to take that leap of faith (which has been well over a month ago now) and He knew everything would be okay. Within the last month, we knew that in our hearts too. 

I emailed my doctor and nurse right away asking my doctor to call me. She was incredible and called within ten minutes. I told her our incredible news and she asked me when we wanted to begin. I told her that today was my day 3 so we were probably too late to start this cycle as it probably wouldn't be possible. I told her that we were prepared to start with my May cycle. Her reply was, "Let me speak to your nurse...it may not be impossible." I was stunned to think that we may not have to wait any longer at all!

Within ten minutes I received an email from the clinic cycle monitoring coordinator stating that I was to be in the clinic tomorrow (Saturday) morning between 0700-0830 for my day 3 (really my day 4) ultrasound and blood work. My nurse emailed me shortly after that, stating she would see us tomorrow after the ultrasounds to fill our prescriptions.

All I could do in that moment was look up and say, "Are you kidding me!...This is incredible!!!" We just had incredible news about our results and now we get to start right away!

Meanwhile, Mitch had NO idea yet as I couldn't get a hold of him and I wanted to tell him in person when he got home. I had double amazing news!!! The photo below is what I set up for Mitch for when he arrived home.
