Lena's: POV
After my conversation with Stef
About wanting to have a baby
Again. She says she's on board
I just don't know with her at times. As where driving in the car, on our way this appointment
I know she's worried about my health and my mental well being
But deep down inside. If I'm being honest, this scares me
But l can't allow fear to stop me from living my life. This place where going to is an hour away
The whole way there Stef holds my hand.we pulled up to the parking lot of the clinic, Stef parks the car. We both get out
And walk inside the building
We have to catch the elevator to the third-floor .we get off the elevator and walk down the hall,
Then we go inside the clinic
I go up to the counter and check in. While Stef and goes to have a seat, l let the woman know
I have an appointment and she gives me some paperwork to fill out and l give her my insurance information. She said she needed a photo ID so she could make a copy for my file, l go and take a seat beside Stef. I start filling out
The forms.they sure ask a lot of questions on these forms,
I say to myself. Stef is engrossed in some magazine she's reading
It seems like she doesn't want to be here. I should have come by myself, instead. When I'm finished with everything l take it back to the lady and gives me back my insurance card and my driver's license. I put everything in my bag, l just wait until their ready for me look over there
Literature that explains the process and how everything works. When the nurse comes out and calls my name,
I stand up and follow her to the back. Stef is behind me,
They take my weight and ask general questions about my health. Then we go into an examining room where the nurse takes my blood pressure.
And writes it down on a piece of paper, then I'm giving a gown put in on. Stef leaves the room
So I could have some privacy
I change out my clothes and put on this dressing gown they gave me to wear, and then I sit up on to the bed. I get back up and go towards the door and open it to see. Stef if is in the hallway,
She's standing there just looking
I grab her by the hand so she could come inside the room
With me. I wanted her to here
What doctor was going to.when he or she enters the room,
Stef's: POV
When we first pull up to this clinic. I told Lena that I was on board with her wanting to try again, l Just don't want Lena to get her hopes up. I'm trying to keep an open mind and support
Lena as much as I can.
I know she wants a baby,
But l have a gut feeling we won't get good news. If this is something Lena really wants
I need to keep my opinion to myself, she gave up the election for me. Why am I being selfish
I need to really put it together
Before l lose Lena, over this
I know she's scared and I'm afraid for her.l want to able be
Show her l care by being a supporter wife.
