You people did an amazing job by sharing this information. You give hope to so many people facing infertility. I appreciate your work. I was an infertile lady. I felt that I can't be a mother ever. In any case, I never realized that something better is waiting for me. Today I am a blessed mother. I have a child through IVF. I am so happy to have her. I trust each couple would be honored by such an astounding gift.
