Faith and Miracle (2)
Gloria and her husband tried to get pregnant naturally for the next three months. Being barren is even all the more difficult to bear when peers and family members started to have newborns. Some people meant good and said "What are you guys waiting for?" or "Don't wait too long..." or "Don't you want to have kids?". These are questions very difficult to face.

Gloria felt misrable at the thought that she is being barren, not being able to do what a normal lady should do. The thoughts of going through fertility treatment in a fertility center did come to her mind but it was quickly dismissed at the thought of the rest of the embryos used for IVF being discarded. She kept praying and asking God "If you can do a miracle on Sarah, Hannah and Elizabeth, why are You not performing a miracle on me?".

Gloria and her husband went back to visit their gyneacologist. He explained that Gloria there is one good news and that is her fallopian tube is not blocked but there is also one bad news and that is Gloria has no ovum release. This was verified through multiple blood test. The only further step they can take if they wish to conceive is to visit the fertility center. Gloria's husband would first need to take a sperm count test. As for Gloria, she started taking traditional herbs to help strenghten her body.

The question "If you can do a miracle on Sarah, Hannah and Elizabeth, why are You not performing a miracle on me?" often comes to Gloria mind. Finally one day she said, "God if it is Your will then bless us with our own children else show us if it is your will for us to be parents and how should it be done - fertility treatment or adoption. Or is it Your will for us to grow old without children? Let us know with certainty". Gloria continuosly joked with her husband telling him that their first child should be called Isaac, the second Samuel and the third John. The names are fine except there are all names for a boy, what happens if they have a daughter?

Due to busyness another two months passed without any progress until one day...
