RESOLVE meeting in my future

Its all set. This sunday. After visiting my grandpa, my mom and I are going to my first RESOLVE meeting. The nearest group is a 2 hour drive from my home, and they meet at 7pm on Sunday nights, making it a logistical challenge to attend. Besides, I didn't want to go by myself, but didn't really have anyone to go with. I wrote to the Resolve lady at the start of the year, and have been getting the meeting reminder emails ever since. And Finally, I am going to go. 


I have to thank Alison, The Privileged Infertile, for helping me realize how much I crave a personal connection. She is working on a personalized blog design for me (I am so excited!) and called me to talk about what I want. It was so great to talk to someone else who is going through this. SO great! So great, in fact, I am going to finally attend a Resolve meeting. Thank you Alison!


Hopefully my meeting won't be like Laura's at Bumpy Journey, attended only by a lady gnome.  I still think that Laura is a HERO for attempting to lead a group. Someday I hope I'll be as awesome and strong as she is right now. 


On another topic, I am really loving all of the posts about Fathers Day. I had no idea that this would be such a hard day for me. The cards at target caught me so off guard, but I am feeling now like I am in very good company. These posts are so validating and make me feel like I am not alone.

YAY for the coming new design and YAY for the RESOLVE meeting!!!! I do hope that your meeting will provide you with the personal touch you are craving. I know how hard it is to just want to SEE and TALK to someone else who is truly fighting with you. Yes, Father's day is a DOOSY. (sigh) I'm working on a new post about it myself...but can't get past the blinking cursor.
Keep your head up! Thanks for stopping by my blog the other day. I'll be back to see how the meeting goes!

I'm glad that my blog name makes you think of determination, that's definitely how I feel!

Do you know what I think of every time I read your husband's blog name? The "My Lovah" sketch from SNL! http://www.nbc.com/saturday-night-live/video/lovers-hot-tub-with-drew-barrymore/236046/ Not everyone is an SNL fan, but I hope this makes you laugh.

I hope the RESOLVE meeting is helpful! I've been going to our local one since December. I think it finally died this month, when our host stepped down. I'm looking into trying to start a new one up a little closer to home. I was driving an hour.

I will sneak this post in after Julie. The RESOLVE meetings have been really good for Julie. When we first got the diagnosis of Azooapermia I was in no shape to be supportive. It was there for her and it needs to be there for others. This whole process is such a mystery to everyone involved. good luck with your meeting let us know how it turns out.
