Signed, Sealed, Delivered!

The time came for us to sign the Shared Risk contract and make the payment. So I guess it's official now...we are on the road to IVF. (As a side note, Shady Grove Fertility is working on a shared risk program that will include all your meds, all for $27,500! That's A LOT of money, but it's a good deal for couples who have no insurance coverage at all. Yeah, like most people have that kind of money laying around right?)

I've been thinking lately about what I would do with all the money that we are spending on IVF, if it didn't work and we were refunded the $20K. Of course, I would be devastated!

But then I would just splurge and live life.

Like this lovely BMW 750Li Sedan.


Maybe take Abbey to Disney and spend the night in Cinderella's castle.
(I wonder if Cinderella had infertility problems. Probably not, because that wouldn't be 'Happily Ever After')
I've always wanted to go on a cruise. Maybe we just take a month off and cruise around the world for while. Road Trip across the US would be fun too!
But my BIGGEST dream would be to go to Vietnam with Steve (who would go kicking and screaming) and do charity work. I am from South Vietnam (about 8 hours south of Saigon) and still have extended family there. I would love to take Steve 'home' to meet my family. Maybe someday we can go there on a humanitarian mission.

I pray that this cycle will be successful so I don't have to decide what to spend the refund on!
