Chapter 1

38 years old.

How time flies. Waw! No husband, no child …

Yesterday I was 20 years old and I’ve had all the time in the world to do things. I still have. For some things. For others things, do I still have time?

If you are alone or, at least, you have failed to have a partner or a husband it doesn’t mean you can’t and you don’t have to have a Baby.

But what will the world say? Am I interested? NO!

Will the child suffer? But what if I explain all things to him/her? Does he/she will understand?

Do I feel the need to have a baby? YES!

That’s how I thought, and I decided, at the age of 38, to make a baby …

I called to a specialised clinic, and I made an appointment.

I asked the one who answered: who is the most trusted gynaecologist.
And she recommended Dr. S to me.

I presented myself at the scheduled date.

When the Doctor asked what is the problem that I have, I said: “I want to make a baby.”

“Okay”, he said. Do you have a partner?
” No”. “I had one, but it didn’t worked out”.

The doctor, easily puzzled, asks me a number of questions. He’s young and open minded.
“Okay, you must do several tests”, he said.

And I started to do all the tests.

The doctor chose to make Intrauterine insemination (IUI).

I received a secret donors list and after days of searching … choices … height … eye colour … hair colour … age … etc … I chose one.

Tall, with dark hair, green eyes (like my mother).

I did a little stimulation and a procedure was done by the doctor.

I’ve been waiting for two weeks. Unfortunately, with hope, with joy…nothing happened …
