This day before Thanksgiving, I give thanks for all of the wonderful women and men who make up the online infertile community. And I emphasize community. Merriam-Webster defines community as a "unified body of individuals." I feel that is exactly what so many of you are- whether it is in the blogosphere or from messageboards. We are not the same, our infertility problems are not the same, and the solutions to our infertility are not the same. Yet, we are unified in our struggle that is infertility. We have the same spirit- the spirit to support, to walk alongside each other, to impart that each of us not alone.
I am so grateful and express my thanks to each and every one of you: for those who have left me an encouraging message, for those who have read what I have written and felt that pang of familiarity, for those who have provided helpful information, for those that have agreed with me and those that have disagreed, for those whose blogs I read faithfully, and those whose blogs I have read only once but been touched by. You all have helped me know I am not crazy, I am not abnormal in what I feel, and I am not the only one.
My Thanksgiving wish for each of you is that this is your last childless holiday.

Your post made me tear up. I'm new to the infertility blogging community, but I am already amazed and touched by so many others willing to share their stories. Wishing you all the best and a Happy Thanksgiving!!
You are a doll. Thank you for all the support you have given me. We are thankful for you too. Happy Thanksgiving! XOXO
I wholeheartedly wish that this will also be your last childless holiday too.
