RESOLVE

In the spirit of sharing resources out there for those searching for answers and support, I am also providing a link to Resolve, The National Infertility Association.  The first time I heard of Resolve was through a friend who had suffered infertility and recently adopted her first child.  Through her journey, she found Resolve and became active in the organization which, among many other things, runs support groups across the country.

The second time I heard of Resolve was at the end of our first fertility appointment.  At times, it is hard to say where I am exactly in this journey.  Am I at the point where I need a support group?  A point where I begin to truly use the word infertile?  Am I headed there?  I am scared to pinpoint where I am, scared to put myself in a group, to begin using terminology that is daunting in its very definition.  Recently, I found myself at a point where I needed to find some sort of support and soon found myself on an internet search that would eventually lead me to an incredible community.  Maybe someday, I will be to the point I need others I can speak about issues with face to face.  Maybe you are there.

What I do know is that I am thankful that I have already heard of Resolve not only through a friend, but also my doctor.  I feel that there is a good sign mixed up in there!
