Ivf bad result

We were hoping to have another brother or sister for my 10 month and fell pregnant 3 months ago.i was told I couldn't keep baby as the beast cancer I'd been diagnosed with 1 week later was a Grade 3. I had to stop breastfeeding. Grief. Abort wanted child. Further grief. Then go through ivf. On the morning of the chemo I got a call. My follicles had been plenty. 14 in each ovary. But only 1 egg was good enough! The call was to tell me the egg had seized. So all hope had gone. Further grief but no time to compute as was having canola threaded in to me 2 hrs later. I feel numb so far. Like I just exist. I want to be positive. Day two after chemo and I feel like I'm just waiting for the next grief/horror. Has anyone else lost the ivf challenge?  I mean I'm clearly fertile but on that cycle it just had enough my body probably didn't know what was happening. One day baby next day gone two days later new stimulation. It's been very hard.

    Hi Bibi, so sad to read about your ordeal. I'm 56 and have not had your experience. However I have just come out of the other end of treatment for grade 3 cancer, and have gone through mastectomy, chemo and radiation treatment. I'm here to tell you that all is not lost, that there is light at the end of the tunnel, and that you have lots of support on this website. There are lots of people here who understand and can give you good advice during your treatment. Sending you a big cuddle, Trace ????????
