Okay so when I think about the fact that it's now November and we finally caved in and saw an RE for the first time in July, it's easy to feel disappointed. And then I remember that Dr. TK didn't come into our lives until September (after a long dance, not the first (nor the last) with the insurance company). We're making progress and are forming a concrete plan for the future of Los Porchs and the addition of an embryo. Yes. An embryo. This is science my darlings, not simply something one prays for and waits around for... [so kindly keep the "God has a greater plan for you" comments to a minimum, I am totally overwhelmed by them and tend to take them with a spirit of hostility rather than the graciousness you intend; I hope to get over that someday].
Hi, it's me - I know it's been a while, but I've been deep inside that bubble I mentioned when everything first happened in November 2020 and I am starting to emerge having done some serious healing and navigating within the trauma of being a suicide survivor and a sole parent. This has nothing to do with that though. I'm dumping this thought here because I need it documented: You know how the conservative crowd tends to use "Well I don't have any children, why should I help pay for the schools?" and "People are just too lazy to work, I don't know why we need social services to help people pay for their child care and food?" I'm noticing those are the same voices I hear in restaurants complaining that there are no servers. No bartenders. No one available to change their oil or to do other trade work. And no one to watch their children. The CEO of the company I work for posted a big response about how child care is the gatekeeper to folks
