Well said, love the crafts references! I'm hoping the visit is going/has gone well. None of this is easy but I see you navigating it with bravery and grace. I just listened to a podcast (Biohacked: Family Secrets) about the infertility industry, including a story about a guy whose donations resulted in, to date, over 70 half siblings finding each other. 60% of them were not told by their parents. Infertility was so stigmatized back then, which was news to me. I so appreciate you sharing your journey, my friend. Hugs and Happy New Year!

How tough to need to armor yourself at this time of year, against someone you love so much. You've got such a strong community of friends, I hope we can be some kind of armor.
