Lightening the Shadow

Infertility Is Disabling. IVF Is Exhausting.

​I used to think inability to reproduce naturally didn’t constitute a physical disability. Now I think infertility is a physical and emotional disability for both husband and wife. It carries a high emotional and financial toll with so many uncontrollable factors. I never thought IVF would take place in my Christian family, but now it has, with all of its hurdles and doctors and needles. The couple within my family is now at the second-to-last hurdle: a “lining check” to see whether embryo implantation should be attempted. I am praying for the best outcome for this couple and their “snowflake babies.” Join me in this prayer and in appreciation of the gift of life from our Creator.
