I’m glad you appreciated the joke.

But note — you’re lucky/blessed. For some it’s not that easy.

Dear Durasell,

Yes, I understand.

It took seven painful years of waiting, praying, crying, and trying, before our first successful delivery. All my babies were high risk; we came close to losing all of them, and did lose two.

I have great sympathy for couples whose hearts are open and anxious for a child, but month after month...nothing. It's like having a great, gaping whole inside you; it makes you question your worth as a person.

We were already looking into adoption when my first successful pregnancy took hold. Had my little one not made it, we would have accepted God's plan in our lives and adopted, instead.
