Was lead to a great song today...
Do you like it? What is it about to you?
Jonathan Singleton's Jerusalem Light
But be glad and rejoice forever
in what I will create,
for I will create Jerusalem to be a delight
and its people a joy.
I will rejoice over Jerusalem
and take delight in my people;
the sound of weeping and of crying
will be heard in it no more.
Isaiah 65:18-19

When Empty Arms Become a Heavy Burden
I have just finished reading this book...literally...minutes ago...
It was just what I needed. One of the writers a former OBGYN, infertility patient, and now a pastor walks you through the chapters with biblical references to people facing infertility and also brings it to a human level. He references God caring for you in the way you would would care for a new kitten...you take them to the vet for shots to keep them healthy...the kitten doesn't understand your purpose. And it left me being able to relate in secondary infertility to an amputee with one leg. Do people often say to him "well at least you have one leg". Discounting my gratefulness for my miracle son. Or secondary infertility is like being at a feast where you are served one delicious roll and then told if you would like the rest of your meal it will cost you an average of $2,000-$50,000, oh and you may not even get your food. Though for most everyone else it is free and all you can eat, all day, everyday, not to mention fresh and cooked to taste.
I highly recommend this book for anyone walking down the path of infertility. It is available at www.amazon.com
Ps...Hubbie said this post sounded angry. I am not angry. Frustrated at times...YES. The point was I found comfort in this book...and I hope your friends will too.

Infertile in Louisiana
Do you have a friend who has infertility issues and lives in LOUISIANA (or insurance in Louisiana)? I would love to talk to them. I have insurance questions that relate to the Louisiana Infertility Insurance Mandate. So please send them my way! ! !

National Infertility Week!!!
About 1 in 8 are affected by infertility.
Homes across America have closets filled with baby clothes...
They are praying, hoping, wishing, taking meds,
Going in for bloodwork, ultrasounds, procedures,
Let's help them get those clothes off the hangers and on a new baby...
Hi friends...it is National Infertility Week...
A bill was introduced by this Senator, a woman of course,
http://gillibrand.senate.gov/newsroom/press/release/?id=d907c56b-d794-4586-bdfd-a48a963d70ed
It will allow Infertility to be covered by insurance as a disease.
Please take time to send a letter...it only takes a second...
Please take the time if INFERTILITY has affected you or someone you LOVE.

Thank you so much,
Sincerely,

Neglected blog...
Sorry...probably won't get much better soon...I am...
-sewing and getting ready for a craft fair the 1st weekend in Dec...same weekend as my son's b-day and party...am i crazy? yeah kinda...but my sweet friend Lori is selling for me so I am not going to the craft fair...
-birthday shopping for C's 3rd birthday/cleaning the presents off the guest room for company to sleep in there
-Christmas shopping
-driving back and forth, back and forth, back and forth to the reproductive specialist in Atlanta as we are trying to have another one of these...
You know because infertility is so fun with the drugs that make you crabby and the blood work and ultrasounds...And then it was so fun being in labor from 30 weeks on...with real contractions not the fake ones they talk about in birthing class...literally I sat in birthing class and said "is it ok if...breath breath breath they are like 10 minutes apart this early?"...you know go to the hospital the day after my baby shower....go home...go to the hospital...stay a few days...go home...go to the hospital...get put on bed rest...go to the hospital...have a premature baby...that can barely breathe on his on for the 1st 30 plus minutes of his life...hey whatever it takes right! It was ALL worth it...and so we try again...Pray for me as we truly try and have another Miracle Baby.
