GIVING THANKS

I know I have many blessings in my life and I’m truly grateful for each one. Even in our story of infertility, there are parts that could be much worse and we are thankful for these amazing gifts…

I am thankful for…
- a large support system of loving family and friends (sadly not everyone has this)
- the financial means to be able do undergo treatments (this isn’t even an option for some because of financial struggles)
- being able to leave my job to focus on trying to start on family by “de-stressing” (this isn’t even an option for some because of financial struggles)
- being within driving distance of MAYO, a renowned clinic (some may have to drive hours and hours, and therefore not be able to seek medical help)
- resources of online sites, blogs, newsletters, and books (because without them, I’d feel like I was the only one going through this)
- living in a time with technology and treatment available for infertility (if it were 30 years ago, I don’t know what options would be available)
