A dream inspired by my IVF being postponed...

Last night, after finding out that my first IVF is going to be postponed yet again, I had this dream:

I?m stuck in the Ocean for days, treading water, trying to stay afloat and finally a rescue plane is right above, excitement!  I am going to be thrown a life raft!  I was waiving my arms and screaming for help and they just didn?t see me so they turned back.  Now I?m sitting in the ocean again with no help in sight, just praying for someone to come looking again.  I was so close to getting that help.

Why can't our minds even be calm when we sleep?  I just don't think I'm strong enough to get through what lies ahead.  Uggghhhh, so sad today.

  • ((HUGE HUGS)) BeeBee. I'm so sorry you're being delayed.

    I hate when IF creeps into my dreams...especially on those days where sleep seems to be the only escape from it.

  • Aw sweetie.  I feel you.  I could have written the same thing - about not sure if I am strong enough.  Somedays are easier swimming and others you just don't know how you will keep your head from going under. 

    Just try to hang in there.

    (((Hugs)))
