Two Denver donor emails to make a recipient girl smile

Both arrived last night.

Email number one:

Hi Mo, 

We saw your donor today.  She is lovely.    She has about 33 resting follicles.    I sent her home with a shipping kit for her to freeze and ship her Day 3 blood to us in.   Her last period was 9/21/11 so she should be starting some time next week. 

And then from a different staffer not on the donor team, someone who we've become close to during our repeated Denver sojourns, who offered to make a point of meeting the donor:

Hi Mo!

I “bumped” into her today. She is SUPER cute and very well poised. I also chatted with the donor team this morning and asked them to fill me in on details. They were all very impressed with her demeanor and attitude. She apparently was very sweet and articulate. The ultrasound tech even commented on how sweet she was! The tech also was very impressed with her follicles (just over 30 total!). I’m keeping my fingers crossed that this all continues to go well!

They liked her!! She's cute! She's articulate! She's "lovely" even!

We also received word last night that she passed the psych screen and MMPI-2 with flying colors (I knew she was a psychologically solid young woman!)...they promise to let us know as she passes each stage of the testing.

So here's where our donor is at on the list of needed approvals:

• psychological evaluation (including MMPI-2) 
• baseline ultrasound
• physical exam
• pap smear/breast exam
• urine toxicology screen
• blood typing
• CBC/chem panel
• communicable diseases panel
• and genetic testing (karyotype, cystic fibrosis, fragile x, spinal muscular atrophy, and hemoglobinopathy)

Good news so far!
