I Am Crazy - and I'm Pretty Sure Done

I am coming to the realization that another baby is very unlikely to be in our future. DH was diagnosed with Epilepsy after having to large scale seizures. His health continues to be an issue. He is having short term memory issues and he thinks mini seizures. He gets tired very easily and confused often. This along with his very low sperm count, I believe is all pointing to us being done.
I'm crazy for even trying this month! I am more stressed than I can ever remember, and the clomid is just making me edgier. I can't handle both ttc and DH medical issues. So I'm pretty sure we are done ttc.
There is a big maybe, that we may try again later...but for now I can't handle it all. I haven't talked to DH yet, I'll wait til the end of this cycle. I plan to go ahead and try IUI, if we can, one more time - since I took the meds already. So here's hoping that in 3 weeks I am leaving this board for a happy reason and not the incredibly devastating reality that I am facing right now.
DD conceived after 3 years of ttc.
MFI - DH had varicocele repair and took Clomid to get DD b. 02/2010
TTC #2 since 6/2010
10/2012 DH diagnosed with Epilepsy
A few failed IUIs summer 2012 and 2013.
DH taking clomid and waiting to see if he needs another vericocele repair.
Hoping for a 2015 baby or babies.
Wishing, hoping, waiting.

I am so so sorry you have to deal with this. Having a sick DH is heard enough, not knowing whether or not you'll have another child is awful.
Fingers crossed that you leave here with happy news!!
