It doesn't take much....

I just called to inquire if another local clinic accepts my insurance, since at least the consult would be covered at 50%, and unfortunately they don't. At that point the wonderful women on the phone said "I can hear the emotion in your voice, would it help if we gave you a 50% discount on the consult price." At that point, the tears started flowing.

So, I am scheduled for a consult for second opinion. I have to wait until mid-Sept, but we had already decided we wouldn't cycle again until at least November anyway, so I'm okay with that timeline!

I hate that this journey is such an emotional one. Anything simple set  off your tears recently?

    I'm sorry you have to go through this :( I hope your appointment goes well.

    Yes, I have definitely had some moments like this lately. Most recently, a girlfriend at work that had her baby two weeks ago brought the baby in yesterday, and then last night I went to Borders and I can't stand walking by the children's books or pregnancy/parenting books sections. Ugh.

    I am glad the woman was so intune with your emotions and you got a discount.

    I was trying on clothes yesterday and had to go up yet another size.  Then later our neighbor was bringing in their new child from the hospital, which adds to their two toddlers.

     I think the drs, nurses and support staff constantly for all of their help and support. It just take a little compassion, and I am a ball of tears. It makes me feel less "crazy".

    I'm so glad they gave you a huge discount!! That right there seems like a good sign!

     

    Oh yes, I had my moment, I ran into the mom of a close friend from h.s.  She was there with her 4 grandkids.. and then asked if I had kids.. I said no. She then looked puzzled and kept saying, I don't get it, you've always been so good with kids and kids always love you.  And I started to cry.  Thankfully the little guy ran off and she had to go after him, so I made my quick getaway.

    She wasn't being mean or snarky at all.. but it still was a knife through the heart..

    I am so sorry that you are going through this.  That was so nice for them to knock 50% off the consult for you anyway.  GL!
