Disappointment Number One!

From reading many IVF/PGD blogs I have learned that there is nothing more important on this journey than patience.  You're likely to end up disappointed, things may not work out how you planned, it could take a lot longer than expected and in reality, it may not happen at all.

We had our first disappointment this week when our first appointment with the genetics team was cancelled because the woman was off sick.  Obviously this cannot be helped but they haven't even rearranged it, we just have to wait to hear from them.  We've been waiting for this appointment since February so goodness knows how long it'll be before it actually happens now.  It's only a minor hitch but I was definitely looking forward to at least getting the process in motion and just learning a bit more about it from an actual medical professional.  

Time to just wait and see what happens, I guess...!
