There are no words to describe how moved I feel when I see this wall full of happy people who are smiling and make me smile as well as I realise that I can always turn to people who have the grace and talent to find a solution to my problem; who offer help and scientific knowledge; who have polite manners and a caring smile and can help me bring A NEW LIFE into this world! After so many agonising efforts and one failure, my husband and I can finally write this thank you note we’ve been dreaming about. There are no words to thank you enough for the precious little creature you have given us—our son; the most beautiful and sweet baby in the world (isn’t that what all parents say about their little child?). Most of all I’d like to thank you, Doctor, because thanks to you we can now hold this miracle in our arms. Thanks to your help we became a family; our arms and hearts are full! And what a surprise: as difficult as it was for me to get pregnant, the easier my pregnancy was. It was as if my body had been expecting this particular baby; this sweet little face who is sleeping peacefully as I’m writing these words. Thank you, Doctor, from the bottom of our hearts for standing by our side and supporting us with optimism and confidence throughout the whole procedure. We met you when everything seemed doomed and dark and you were the one who gave us hope after we had our first failure. You and the Embryolab team! Thank God for sending you in our path. The road to parenthood seemed steep; almost like a mountain we had to climb. Nevertheless, with your guidance and the exceptional cooperation we had with everyone at the Centre, that mountain became a small hill; still with a magical view!!! We thank you personally for your consistency when dealing with our problem and for treating us humane. We also thank the embryologist. No matter how many times we thank you, it won’t be enough to express the feelings we have for you. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts! May God keep you safe so you can continue to do what you know best: make more couples shed tears of joy! We hope Angelos, our boy, will continue to be the happy and quiet baby that he is and that he’ll grow up to be strong and healthy! You stand out in a field that has become extremely commercial. Thank you very much for everything for everything! (This letter was given to the gynaecologist of the Assisted Reproduction Unit, Mr. Anesidis)
