waist down.

do they know

waist down

is connected to

ME?


do they know

I love to write and travel and read and drink coffee?

do they know

I love dogs and sunsets and country air and road trips?

do they know

I am totally in love with my husband, my family and my friends?


or am I just another wannabe mom

putting my

body and

mind and

relationships

through hell

with another procedure that has a 5-10% success rate?

do they see

ME

or do they see my

anxiety

polyps

hormones

heartbreak

chipped toenail polish

tilted cervix

hopelessness

failed IUIs

vagina

tears

unshaven legs

hope

body

fears

speculums

medication

ultrasounds

donor sperm

sadness

What do you see?

Do you see me?
