Flippin, flappin, Fudge, GAHHHHHHH. Lots of frustration going on right now.
Taking a deep breath here. We are working on contracts. I am using the same lawyer that we used for the sibling contracts. It was a rush deal last time. We were going to use the same contracts that I wrote up with Logan. But, their atty didn't want to use those again. So, the guys had to pay $$$ for the attys contract. I have my reservations on why this is, but that is a whole other post. ;)
So, if you remember last time, I said I should send her some chocolates because I was kind of rude to her. Well, I guess I should of done that. I talked to my atty last Saturday. Went over the contract, I had 2 1/2 pages of changes I wanted made. The contract was very pro-IP. Lots of spots that a surrogate could get into trouble. So, anyways, she asks what our time frame is. I tell her that we start meds on Feb 13th, so we have a little time. No, I guess not. My IM informs me that they are leaving on the 4th for a trip. They won't be back until after med start. Well, the clinic won't let you start meds without a contract in place. Which is smart. So, I start letting my atty know that we have had a change in plans, and it needs to be done NOW. Like yesterday. Well, here it is Sunday, and nothing. I have been emailing her and she keeps telling me that she is sending it , but it never shows up.
Yesterday I got a text from the agency and the IPs wondering what was going on. I have emailed the atty a ton, with the same results....nothing. I emailed her yesterday, I still haven't had a reply. Usually she will reply , of course, what she replies with never happens. So, which is better. LOL
I cannot get her to send the redline contract. I am pissed. I want this done. I am paying out money on my end for copays, notary, faxes, etc.... and want to make sure I am covered. But, I also want to make sure this cycle isn't pushed back. Grrrrrr I should of stuck with Shelley. She was always fast. Mistake learned. I will not use this attorney ever again, and I will tell other surrogates not to waste their time either.
With better news, I got to see the guys and Logan last week. It was so awesome!! I got kisses and hugs. Logan is such a sweetie. Was such a nice visit with the guys.
Spent sunday in the ER. I play roller derby and rolled my ankle during practice. A big pop and I was no longer moving. Its been hell week. Been in bed most of the time. Took a few days off of work. It is a pain in the butt. Saw my GP on Wed. He says I tore some blood vessels and some ligaments. I have another appt with the Ortho this coming Wed. I would really like this to be cleared up and get back to life.
Love to all!!!
