A JOURNEY THROUGH INFERTILITY--In Search of My Children

My life, from an observer’s point of view, looked enviable. The month after marrying my soul mate, we bought a house in the country and worked tirelessly to turn it into the perfect home for raising children. Assuming I could control when our children would arrive, we spent happy years traveling with friends and working on our successful business. By my 32nd birthday, when a pregnancy had not occurred, we began to actively research why. This began the long, arduous journey through the hope and despair of unexplained infertility. Starting with the simplest treatments, we progressed through every conceivable option. I survived the ordeal with the love and support of friends and family, although even they, at times, could seem insensitive to the extent of my pain. With unusual twists and turns, I continued my quest for the children who I believed were somewhere out in the vast universe, waiting for me. This is a story of love and faith, dedicated to my two precious children.
