		<description>Kate, 

I’m glad you’ve started the long healing process, and that you’re opening up about living without children or getting pregnant. And, I&#039;m sorry about your IVF...that&#039;s so hard.

But, thank you so much for your comment. It inspired me to write this article: 
&lt;a href=&quot;http://theadventurouswriter.com/blogbaby/quipstipscouplesinfertility/relationships/why-talking-about-infertility-makes-you-feel-better/&quot;rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Why Talking About Infertility Makes You Feel Better&lt;/a&gt;

Many people are reluctant to talk about infertility, and don’t realize how helpful and healing (as you said) it can be.

I wish you all the best, and hope to see you around these parts more often! :-)

		<description>I&#039;ve got endo and fibroids too - also had failed IVF.    I&#039;ve only just started to tell people when they ask if I&#039;m going to start a family that I&#039;m unable to have children (in the past I&#039;ve always dodged the question) and in a way this has started the long healing process.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m still hoping we have kids, but if we don&#039;t, I&#039;d cope with the disappointment of a childfree life by exploring the world more. Perhaps once I know we aren&#039;t going to have kids I will want to become involved with Big Brothers.</description>

		<description>Like Elisse, I&#039;ve had my share of down days based on my faulty uterus, also plagued with fibroids and endometriosis, writing has saved me more than once in clearing my head. I try to live in the moment and not get caught up in what might have been...will share more in the way of lessons learned in a longer submission later this week!</description>
