Just an FYI, on Wednesday, my wife delivered our second son--a healthy 7lb 13oz boy. God bless IVF. If anyone has any questions re: IVF, I have become somewhat of an expert :)

I looked at it like this: without a TX, I will die. With a TX, there is a chance. I took that chance and every time I run, play with my son, or whatever else I "used to" do, I thank God my wife MADE me get listed. I was terrified of a TX---the night before I told my doctor that I wanted to be...

Same here, Joseph. I was in complete denial. Thanks to Dr. McArdle (Yale) who shocked me into realizing that the end was near. Without that, I wouldn't be here. This is why I tell people not to wait for a doctor to do what Dr. McArdle had done for me.
