Day 21: Our Final Night

With our precious cargo of 2 already loaded yesterday, we begin loading the luggage in preparation for our departure tomorrow morning. It's our last night in DC for this trip,
and it's a little sad to say goodbye. We've done and experienced so much during our three weeks here...both medically and tourist-lly. We met awesome friends in Sparky and Gena and also got to spend a couple of nights-out with the Ogawas.
Ahead of our sadness to leave is the hope that we take home with us and the comfort of our own home that lies just 11 hours away. We depart tomorrow with a real chance at seeing the miracle we so long for come true....just two weeks time will tell....and the "closeness" to that miracle which we feel is an awesome emotion! Our two embies should be continuing to divide, and will reach the "blastocyst" stage tomorrow. We'll be praying that they both successfully implant
between Mon and Wed (the normal timeframe for that to happen).
Our time here was fabulous, and no doubt under a veil of prayer that we felt from so many who were lifting us up.
While it means an end to this IVF cycle, we hope and pray that it is the beginning to a new part of our journey...pregnancy. We'll continue to update the blog with new news...next big update will be on 4 Feb, when we get the results of the pregnancy blood test.

Until the next post, we just want to say again how much we treasure your love, support, and prayers.

Blessings be yours

Chad, Gena, Nash, Teebo, Embie-1 and Embie-2
