I don't feel that pit in my stomach as much anymore. It's going to be a very nice day out today so I'm going to be outside as much as possible! I need to go on a nice long, leisurely walk. I think I've resolved to accept what is going on right now. I can't think much about IF until I see the new IF spec. Dr. napro never got in touch with me with results or anything. I've resolved to let that go and move on. He obviously does not want our business. I wonder if there is someone I could talk to at the PPVI institute( I wish they would send me a survey). I will not send anyone his way...that is for sure. So, isn't that defeating the purpose of Creighton? Don't the practitioners want more clients and the dr's more patients? I thought this was suppose to be the Catholic way of handling IF. I truly believe that it didn't work for us due to the Napro dr's way of doing things. I've gotten a hint from the practitioner that some of the other clients were not happy with him either. Anyway...non of that matters anymore...we are moving on.
Yesterday, I met a very dear friend of mine for coffee. It was so nice to talk to her. She's a mentor for me and IF. She adopted two beautiful children from Korea. She never had a baby. Her IF dr was up front and honest and told them that they couldn't have children unless they went the donor egg route. They didn't pursue that and just went for adoption. Anyway...she was very encouraging. She's very busy with her children so it's tough for us to get together.
Things between my DH and I are back to normal. He's relieved that Dr. Napro is going to be out of the picture (something about this dr just bothered him). I did really well on the group project presentation that I had to do last night at class (even though I had a migraine!). The professor was impressed and gave us all of our points. The project was on early literacy and phonemic awareness. One of my group members brought in a really fun alphabet project that we did with the class...I'm going to make one for myself so I can have it in my "bag of tricks". As a sub teacher I always have extra activities on hand for the children. I can't wait to be a teacher myself and have my own classroom. I know that is where God wants me to be. It is nice to come home to a quiet house after subbing all day! :) God bless.
I was thankful my first doctor and I didn't see eye to eye because now I think I have the doctor I am supposed to have.
ReplyDeleteJust because you don't like one Priest doesn't mean you won't like them all. If it doesn't fit I would find another napro doctor. Usually not going to be convenient for travel but worth it in the long run. Creighton says that they can't help everyone.
The system is run by humans so there will be errors. Just because he is Catholic doesn't mean a thing, if he doesn't practice what is taught by napro.
I hope the liberal doctor can help you resolve unsettled issues. If not you can always find a different napro. The whole system shouldn't be judged on 1 single doctor.
Praying that it works out....
I agree Sew. I know there are other good Napro dr's out there (I read about them all the time on other blogs) but he's the only one in this region and they are trying to get Creighton started out here. Other napro dr's may not be covered by our insurance. Costs are always something that has to be considered. We'll see what libral dr can do for us!
ReplyDeleteCan you post a quick blurb on your project? (or e-mail me?) Even though I teach 7 year olds, there are still struggling readers and even as a full-time teacher, I'm always looking to add to my bag of tricks, too!
ReplyDeleteAnd good luck with the doctors. You really need one you "click" with. Even if you go with a liberal one, he or she could be open to your beliefs and working WITH you. (As a doctor should be doing.) Good luck!
I'm sorry that things didn't work out with your NaPro doctor. Hopefully this new doctor works out. I'll keep you in my prayers.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your prayers. I'll take all I can get. ;o)
Blessings, LA
Just wanted to stop by and tell you that it sounds like you are a great sub and will be a great teacher! My sis teaches 2nd grade & I have lots of respect for teachers who love what they do & do a great job.
ReplyDeleteHope everything works out with your doctor situation.
