Success after IF

So much bad news this week (NSAIFR and depressing)

Last saturday the husband of a local teacher was killed on an atv age 42. Last sunday a 16 year old girl was killed on an atv and a woman was hit by a car and killed while walking with a friend, she was in her early 60's. There was a fatal motorcycle accident with a 23 year old on Monday. On tuesday, my SIL's 31 year old cousin died suddenly leaving behind a 4 yo and 6 month old twins.  On thursday my other SIL called to tell me that her friend's (who died a year ago from cancer leaving  3, 4 and 16 daughters in the care of her mother) mother died from a pulmonary embolism.  Those poor girls! I just can't imagine..... This morning I found out a wonderful woman that I went to nursing school with passed away after a rough battle with her third(!!) type of cancer.  When we visited our IVF clinic today we found out that our RE just had major surgery for a very serious cancer and his prognosis is not great.  The clinic will stay intact, but they will be selling the company.  All of this happened within 20 miles except for our RE. 

Sorry for the very depressing post. I just can't believe how fragile and unfair life can be.  I am really hoping that we get some better news around here or at least slow down with the bad news.  Hug your SO's and your LO's extra tight tonight!
