Chapter 1: Beginnings
GERMANY: 1983
I couldn't help but notice that the nurse seemed a little sad as she led my wife and I into the Doctor's consultation room. As we entered she told us to have a seat and the Doctor would be right in to discuss our test results. As she left the room Sherry and I exchanged a hopeful glance and tried to smile at each other. I reached out and grasped her hand and told her not to lose hope, it wasn't over yet.
The Doctor joined us in just a few minutes, took his seat behind his desk, and began looking over our test results. After what seemed like hours, he finally closed our file, looked up at the two of us. I could tell from the look on his face that it wasn't going to be good news, not good at all.
"Well, I am afraid that the results are not as good as we hoped for," he said with true sadness in his eyes.
Sherry and I both gripped the others had even tighter as we simply nodded our heads for him to continue.
"Let's begin with your results Sergeant," the doctor began as he opened my file. "In your medical history you didn't mention ever suffering any severe trauma to your genitals. But my examinations, and the test results, indicate that you did indeed suffer some sort of severe trauma, probably in your youth that has essentially left you sterile."
My whole world crashed down upon me as I digested his words. Frantically I searched my memory, when... how... what... could have happened to cause this. Sherry squeezed my hand even tighter as a show of support. "Is there anything that can be done to correct the problem," I asked hopefully?
"Nothing that is feasible at this time, the damage happened to long ago, and I am afraid is just irreversible, especially under the military medical system."
I just sat there stunned by the news. I guess in the back of my mind I knew that there was something wrong with me physically, but had refused to believe it. As I was getting a handle on my feelings the Doctor turned his attention to my wife.
"Sherry, at 37, you are still producing healthy, viable eggs. There are some issues that need to be taken in account. First of all is that while your eggs are still healthy you suffer from a low grade vaginal infection that will cause a very high mortality in any sperm present. This drastically reduces the possibility of pregnancy and is very difficult to treat effectively. The second is you irregular menstrual cycles."
"What about artificial insemination," I asked hopefully?
"That is an option, using a sperm donor of course; however the military does not provide for that procedure. You could contact a civilian agency, it will be expensive but it would be a solution to both of your physical limitations. And there is always adoption."
The Doctor stood and escorted us to the door, telling us that he wished that he had been able to provide better answers to our infertility issues, and told us to see his nurse for information on artificial insemination programs locally.
To say that we left the clinic somewhat disheartened is an understatement. This was the sadist time in our 6 years of marriage. To be told that we would never have the children we both so desperately desired was such a blow that we both retreated into our own personnel thoughts and hardly even spoke on the long trip back to our home base.
When we got home Sherry said that she was tired and wanted to lie down for a while. She gave me a peck on the cheek and went to our bedroom and closed the door. I don't know why but that was almost as painful as the realization that our childlessness was mainly because of me. I went to the kitchen and made myself a drink and retreated to my easy chair to ponder my options, an idea was forming in my mind as I reflected on our years together...
Sherry and I had been married for 6 wonderful years. We had traveled and explored a large part of Europe during our postings there. Even though she is 5 years older than I am, she has a very youthful and dynamic personality that not only makes her seem younger but attracts people to her side. Short and trim with a beautiful face and sexy body we have enjoyed each other emotionally as well as physically and had experienced a great sex life together.
We both had come from previous marriages, jaded and unsure. I was a career Army Non-Commissioned Officer and Sherry was a Baptist Sunday school teacher when her brother introduced us. We were married just six months after we first met. To say we were a perfect match might be stretching things a bit but we were very compatible.
Born and raised in Texas and Oklahoma Sherry was in awe when we arrived in California where I was stationed. The prim and proper Sunday school teacher started to blossom. When we first met she tended to wear very conservative clothes that hid her charms. It was only when we were in bed that she allowed her sexy inner self to come out.
After six months or so of exposure to the "California" lifestyle, Sherry began to change, and it was a change for the better. Her style of clothes became less conservative and she took more pride in her looks. She began to enjoy the looks that she began to receive from both men and women when she noticed them admiring her looks and vitality.
Our sex life blossomed as well. While sex between us was always good it became even better as she began to lose her inhabitations and expand her horizons. Sex was no longer restricted to just the dark of the bedroom but became more open and exciting.
Sherry made friends easily and was always supportive of others. If one of our friends were in trouble, there was Sherry, right there helping in any way she could. I was always being reminded by friends and even strangers what a lucky man I was to have such a wife and companion in my life. The only cloud in our lives was the lack of children.
That lack was not from lack of trying. While many men, and women, complain that they and their partners have drifted apart as the years go by, Sherry and I grew closer together. When others complain that their sex life has dwindled to once or twice a week or even less I grin to myself and marvel at the fact that Sherry is ready for sex once or twice every day! Sex with her is the best I could ever want. Outgoing and sensuous, willing to experiment and unselfish in her desire to please, she is my dream.
We constantly discovered new aspects of our passion as we grew together; sometimes it was life changing in scope. One of the most surprising happened on one of our annual trips back to Texas to visit Sherry's family. We always drove; it was the only way to afford to make the trip on military pay. We owned a Chevy Malibu station wagon and would drive straight through, sleeping in the car when we had to rest. From California to East Texas took about 32 hours even when we didn't detour to see this or that scenic wonder. It was on one such detour, through South East New Mexico, that we both discovered something new about the other. Actually several things were discovered that day...
NEW MEXICO: 1977
We had been driving for what seem forever along a two-lane highway, headed south. It was a bright spring day and we were both in high spirits. Sherry mentioned that she could use a potty break if we passed a rest area or service station. Now towns were few and far between in this part of New Mexico and it had been awhile since we had passed one and I wasn't sure where the next one was. Sherry assured me that it wasn't critical but that I should try and avoid hitting any bumps unless I wanted her to have an accident in the car.
Mile after mile went by without services. Sherry was fidgeting more and more but was not complaining. I could tell she was in some discomfort and needed relief soon. That is when we passed the sign telling us that the next rest area was 12 miles away. Assuring me that she could make it Sherry urged me to hurry before she sprung a leak.
There were two other cars in the rest area when we pulled in. I drove to the area with the rest room when Sherry let out a strangled groan and pointed to the sign, Rest rooms closed next services 63 miles. There was no way Sherry was going to make it to the next rest area. Since both of the other cars were parked some distance away from the restroom area I suggested that she just step behind the building and take care of business.
"There is no way that I am going to do that," she replied with a look of shear panic on her face. "Something might be out there!"
I thought for a moment and got an idea. The area around the closed restrooms was pretty much screened from the rest of the area by a small cluster of cottonwood trees and plantings. I backed the wagon into a spot so that the passenger side door was on the side away from the other cars in the rest area and would further shield us from the road. I explained this to Sherry and since she really was in need of release she agreed that it was the best we could do.
Taking off her seatbelt, Sherry raised her hips and tugged her shorts off of her hips and slid them off. She looked so sexy, sitting there in her panties and shirt that I started to get a little excited. Then she hooked her thumbs in the waistband of her little panties and slid them down and off as well. Now I hadn't expected that but she probably didn't want to get them wet. Sometimes having something to aim is a real plus.
With a last look around she opened her door and got out, squatting with her back to the door she spread her legs wide, giving me a wonderful view of her sweet pussy. Now I have seen a lot of different pussies in my life and had my fair share of them but Sherry has the most perfect pussy I have ever seen. The light brown hair covering her pussy is soft and downy, thin enough to hide little of the glory underneath. The outer lips of her pussy are full, and completely cover her small pink inner lips leaving only the line of her slit to be seen peaking through her hair.
