One woman doing her part to break the silence that surrounds infertility.
Wednesday, December 15, 2010
When I was at therapy on Monday, I had a thought about the whole ideal of relaxing and not stressing. After all, people say all the time that it doesn't help me to be stressed, and I know that. However (analogy time again, boys and girls), telling an infertile that it would help them to relax is like telling a person that has been shipwrecked and floating without a life jacket for a day or two to tread water and breathe. Yes, it will help, but the longer the person is out there, the harder that is to keep doing.
