Poem

Post by Traci »

The journey from infertility to family,
someone once said,
is like taking a train ride;
never knowing whether
you'll reach your desired destination..

there are plenty of stops along the ride,
and each of the passengers
makes it's own decision
when it's time to get off

Some never need to take the train,
other's ride it for a lifetime.
but whether you reach your destination or not.
pay attention to the journey.
If you will,
as painful as it is,
it may reward you in unexpected ways.

I have just read your poem and it has made me cry! - It is so true!!!!
I have my test on Monday to see if FET has worked for us so am feeling very emotional at the moment so maybe that explains the tears!!!

Take care everyone
