Being a mother is something I have waited and prayed for since I was a young girl mothering dolls. After 4 years of infertility, tests and procedures that failed 100% of the time, we were blessed with a miracle. I have become passionate about helping others through the struggle of infertility and have started a non-profit organization in order to reach out to people across the country.

It has been a process of sorts to be open enough to talk about this part of me, but it is now something that I choose to embrace and appreciate, as I have learned more and more about myself and my purpose.

I hope this blog can be a place where you can find strength and support through others who know the struggle. Please feel free to contact me with questions, advice, or any and all venting. I know that with the help of each other, we can overcome this struggle...or at least handle it in a way that will leave us better for it.

Welcome to my blog - My Journey To Fertility.

en-do-me-tri-osis: the presence and growth of functioning endometrial tissue in places other than the uterus that often results in severe pain and infertility.

For some reason, that sounds harsh. Forget you Webster.

  1. you don't know me, but i'm a good friend of kristin call's.

    endometriosis can suck a juice box. i feel you all too well with that.

    also, when people say, 'just adopt' tell them to, 'just go hike up a cliff.'

    there is no guarantee in any of this, unfortunately. we had our adopted daughter for two weeks and then the birth dad took her away. how's that for a guarantee? this is a long, harsh road. you are handling it with grace and poise. i commend you.

    i'm still trying to come up with something for your auction. i hope it helps you accomplish your goal of a little one in the family.
