Thank yous
Brian and I wanted to thank everyone for being so supportive during our quest. I have a few special thank yous that I wouldn't feel right if they didn't know how truly special they are to us.
Mom and Dad- Thank you, thank you, thank you, for being such wonderful parents. You have taught me how to be strong when needed and how to accept the things that I can not control. I don't think that I would have been able to get through this if it weren't for you and the great qualities that you have instilled in me. You are always there to help us out with the tough decisions that we have been faced with. Thank you! We love you.
Jeni- You have been an amazing friend. You have been there for me when I needed to cry, vent, laugh and scream. Your medical background has helped me when the doctor lingo has been a bit overwhelming. You always know exactly what to say to help me even if sometimes it is a quiet silence. I love you dearly and can't express how much you mean to me. I don't think I could ever repay you for being the rock and support that I have needed through this process. I hope that someday I will be as wonderful of a mother as you have become! I love you.
Dave- Thank you for being there for Brian. I know that he truly looks up to you and is very honored to be your son. You have been a great support for him. Your weekends up at the cabin have been exactly what he has needed. It has been a great escape from our uncertain world. Thank you for being such an understanding father and friend to him.
Liz- You are an amazing sister. I am indebted you. You have been a great support for both Brian and I. You have always been there when either one of us has needed you. You will make a great auntie someday! We love you!

So now I understand, I too am crying while reading your blog! You are an amazing spirit Jill! I can't believe how strong both you and Brian have been through all of this. God has amazing things in store for the two of you! I am so glad that you started your blog. I never realized just how intense infertility treamtment is. Shots? Um, no thanks! 3 months between doctor's appointments with no answers, too stressful! My prayers are with you, especially this month of May! "This is your month!" ;)

Jilly, thank you so much for the thoughful words! I love you like a sister and I am here for you always anytime, anyday. You are stronger than anybody I know. You are going to be such a wonderful, loving mother and I can't wait! You don't know how bad I want this for you guys. I am very hopeful I always have been because I know motherhood and fatherhood for you guys is meant to be. You just have some detours to take that is all! Whatever road you take please know that I am right here!
Your blog is an amazing story. I know that you don't want people crying or feeling sorry for you, so I won't...I am going to pray for the two of you. I know you with both be wonderful parents. Bill and I are going to start trying for a family in the next two months, and with your story, I know that if I have any worries or questions, I know who to go to. What an inspiration the two of you are.
You are an amazing person and I wish you the best. I hope that you are able to proceed with the Invitro soon.

Thank you so much for sharing your story. Liz keeps me a little up to date on what's going on but it was interesting to hear all the details. Now I know what you were keeping in my frig...
I really admire you and Brian and your story inspired me. So if you ever thought you wanted to be an inspiration to someone, well, you have succeeded. It was really a wonderful story that I know, no matter what direction your road turns there will be happiness at the end. I actually had tears in my eyes when I was reading it. I wish you guys best wishes and all the luck in the world.
Love, Holly
Jill, even though you have kept me up to date on what you and Brian have been going through, reading it gave me a different percpetive. I have always admired your determination combined with your compassion. As all your friends are having babies, you still manage to be happy for them, attend their baby showers and love their babies.
Jill, you are always surprising me. I love your sense of humor, the way you are so loyal to your friends and family and your amazing thoughtfulness.
Greg and I love you and Brian and know that someday you will have childen in your life.
Mom
