Evelina and I have been touched by the last few months of walking with Maddie and Chris Cooke of the journey to get pregnant child Chris battled cancer. Sadly, as you know, the FET failed and just a few short weeks later, Chris passed away. As you may have read, Maddie was grateful for the support and opportunities My Fertility Plan and others provided.
We realized there is much a community can do when it comes together for a good cause. We also know what an encouragement Maddie and Chris have been to those who struggle in different ways on the family-building path. Maddie’s story would have gotten lost in the blogosphere otherwise.
We would to share someone else’s story – we know that pain shared is pain lessoned. Would you be willing to blog about your path on My Fertility Plan? No matter what your circumstances – gay couple, single woman, whatever – we would like to hear from you. In return, we would like to provide our support and information services for free. We can only do this for one person, but we want to continue to give back a portion of our time and resources in gratitude for all the lives we are able to touch through My Fertility Plan.
Could that person be you? You don’t have to be a great writer – just willing to share. Drop us a note through the contact us page at www.myfertilityplan.com.
Chris and Maddie's story is so sad. My heart goes out to Maddie.
