The Best Gift of All
Luna has written an eloquent post called An Open Letter. It captures the complex set of emotions that befall infertile women when they hear about the pregnancies of others — whether those pregnancies came easily or after much effort and heartache. Her words touched me deeply and reminded me again that the best gift any person can offer to someone with chronic infertility costs no money and takes little, if any, effort.
It's the gift of compassion. Please give it generously this holiday season.

And thanks for your kind comment on my post today, PJ.
I could say the same about you

Thanks so much for your kind words. And of course I'm honored that my post resonated so well that you would share... (I was wondering if I was too harsh after I hit publish, but knew it had to stay...)
