Got an email from IM and they're ending our journey. I'm so completely dumbfounded and sad. I kept waiting for the other shoe to drop but thought that since we had gone thru most of the testing, that we must be "for real".
So, what happened, was they met with the lawyer again and went over more of the specifics of financial implications and decided that there was no way that they'd be able to do this with all the "what ifs". If everything was storybook, they'd be fine. If I required bedrest, interventions, long hospital stays, twins, triplets, multiple tries, etc - they'd be wiped out and couldn't chance it.
On one hand, I feel so very badly for them. If I were in their position, I don't believe that I/we could afford a surrogate.
I'm still hurt though and angry. I was so ready to give this a big "GO" and I'm thrown back to the beginning again.

i am so sorry, N.
i know you really wanted this.
and it seems like you worked so hard to give this a chance. i don't understand all the math, but i guess some people are more worried about debt than anything else. and with the market and lenders in the state it's in...
anywho, sorry for your loss...
So sorry for you hun. I'm sure it's no consolation but I am sure this reality is incredibly hard on the IPs as well. They were matched and sooooo close to going down the journey of "conceiving" the child they've been dreaming about only to realize that it wasn't feasible. I'd guess that their hearts are feeling broken as well.
More hugs for you.
