infertility: get informed
i was made aware (shout out! : ) that this is national infertility awareness week. while it's not usually comfortable for me to point this sort of thing out to others, i guess it's good for people to be aware. i'd rather have people just be friendly, sensitive, and aware on their own, but i think that's expecting too much of people in general. so i guess that's why the awareness week exists... : ) and why i'll pass it on...
here's a link to the national infertility association's website:
http://www.resolve.org/support-and-services/for-family--friends/
this particular page is specifically for family and friends... like it says...
i haven't read everything on there, so i can't say i absolutely agree with everything on there or would back it up, but i can tell that there's good information. and there are things that i would agree with and ring true with me. i'm pretty sure for will too, but i won't speak for him here... : )
there's obviously plenty of other information on the site if you click around. read up! get informed! don't say things that will make me crazy! i think you can find lots of answers to questions you might have. i think there's something for almost everyone to learn.
and if you're really passionate, here's a link to the national infertility awareness week homepage:

I was going to say count me as passionate until I saw they wanted to bring an infertility support group to every community. I don't have spare time for that....so nevermind :) I'll have to be un-passionate I guess.
ReplyDeleteI will echo the friends/ family page is a great start. I read the Infertility Etiquette and it is a MUST READ (for friends and family, not those suffering):
Here is the exact link:

Sorry to put a post on your post! Love you.
