The New Year brought a cold virus together with acute sinusitis aka sinus infection for me. I've been taking antibiotics for almost two weeks. I started to feel better but the sinus infection is still lingering. The bad side of it is that I am scheduled to travel to Europe to visit my family in about week's time. I've been waiting for this trip for 10 years and now it seems like I may have to cancel it due to sickness. My doctor said that under no circumstance shall I fly with sinusitis. Air pressure makes it much worse.
Now we sit and wait and pray for my sinus infection to clear.
After many heartbreaking years of fertility treatments, we discovered that our only chance of viable pregnancy is through Donor Eggs.

Review of last year
This is my third attempt at blogging. I deleted my previous blogs because they were getting too depressing and I just couldn't go on. I needed to start over. Lets' see how far I'll make it this time.
Last year was disastrous, full of losses on all fronts. I didn't get to cycle at an Eastern-European clinic. The day after I had accepted the donors our lovely strata units owners voted in favor of roof replacement project and all the money we had prepared for DE cycle went towards payment for the roof. We didn't really have a choice.
DH finished his legal studies that lasted for over 3 years. These were three years of living on one income, with desperate attempts to get pregnant, spending tons of money that we didn't have on IVF and getting in debt. After completing his courses with good grades, DH spent 8 months looking for work, day after day, sending tons of resumes.
In September, we went to Seattle to discuss our options with donor eggs. I liked the clinic. I completed pre-screening tests and now I am ready to proceed, except that we don't have $30,000 and I am afraid to take on more debt.
On Christmas eve, DH's mother passed away suddenly from cancer. She was ill two months prior and he was planning to visit her. DH missed his mom by 3 days. She died before he was able to see her to say good bye.
