And it couldn't come soon enough! I am so tired, and I don't really know why. I've been sleeping better lately than I have in a long time, though it was awfully hard to get up this morning. I am so ready to get off these meds.
My CMO, who's been spending most of his time working in Brazil lately so I haven't seen much of him, took the time to stop by yesterday to say goodbye and wish me luck. I haven't told anyone but my boss (and a few co-workers) about what we have and are going through, but he did ask if it was okay to tell people up the chain why I was going on leave last year, so my CMO knows. He was very nice and wanted to know what I was doing next (if I was going to work) and to let me know that I was welcome to come back if I wanted (not likely) or that he'd be happy to give me a recommendation if I needed one in the future. It made me feel really good that all my efforts here over the last year and a half haven't gone completely unnoticed and that I'm leaving on decent terms.
Now if I could just take a nap...

Congrats! I can only imagine how free you feel!
ReplyDeleteInspiring! After my recent failed IVF attempt (#4), I'm toying with the same idea. I'm 37 and I'm feeling these are the remaining years to chase my dream of becoming a parent. Thank you for sharing your story. It's such a difficult decision to quit a secure job, but you seem very optimistic. And I just learned about your BFP. Congrats on all fronts!
