Hello to ICLWers (and everyone else, of course)! I’m a therapist who’s dealt with infertility and adoption, and I like to write about how to maneuver those crazy waters even when you feel like you’re about to sink. No easy task for sure. Welcome, and I hope you find something helpful on this blog today!
I was perusing through my old personal blog and found a time period when I was doing “bad art.” True, my artistic ability is next to nil, but it sure gave me pleasure to put something funny out there…especially when it had to do with making fun of infertility (and mostly myself, actually).
So, I decided to post my personal IVF Story, funnies style. May it bring you a wee bit of joy today.
