To The Woman Struggling With Infertility:

I may not know you, but rather I comprehend what you're experiencing.

We have a place with a club nobody needs to be a piece of. It's a club covered with awfulness, dissatisfaction, stretch, misfortune, depression, and now and then even insider facts.

But on the other hand, it's a club made up of warriors — you, me, and a huge number of other ladies who battle with barrenness.

We are your armed force.

We may never meet — we may never know each other's names — yet we are with you.

We are with you when you discover, at the end of the day, that you aren't pregnant. At the point when the test peruses negative, and tears fall at another fizzled cycle.

We are with you at the primary spots of blood, regardless of whether they be from the earliest starting point of another cycle or another misfortune.

We are holding you when you can't talk when you would prefer not to get up, and when you would prefer not to be touched.

We are the quality behind your constrained grin when somebody unconsciously asks, "All in all, when are you going to have children?"

We are there with you when you are scrutinizing what's next. When you're thinking about the amount more you can take, and how much longer you can persevere through this excruciating voyage. When you stress how you'll ever survive in the event that you can't give away all the affection that is in your heart to kid sometime in the not so distant future.

We are there with you when the specialists disclose to you your alternatives. At the point when the room falls quiet at the finding.

Barrenness.

You have never felt so alone, yet you're definitely not. Since we are with you.

We know your dread. We know your heart superior to nearly any other person.

We are with you at that child shower — another that is not your own. We are with you Saturday morning when your newsfeed is loaded with yet another pregnancy declaration. We are with you as you pass the child area at Target, thinking about whether you'll ever be buying one of those frilly outfits or minuscule sock sets one day.

You will stun yourself by the measure of quality you find inside. You will be overcome when you take yet another infusion, track another cycle, and begin outlining your days.

You will pardon your body for coming up short you, and for double-crossing you. You'll figure out how to by and by adoration her, I guarantee.

I know it's dim and forlorn and startling and unreasonable right at this point. What's more, I know you feel broken.

Not just have parts of you broke en route, however, this battle is evolving you.

Be that as it may, right now is an ideal opportunity to get those pieces and develop your reinforcement once more, young lady.

You are a warrior and you will get through this.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?
