Conference
In 2008, after two years of failing to make a child organically, we learned the doom Kathy had already been feeling for more than a year was justified: I was diagnosed with male-factor infertility. Our only real chance to move forward would be in vitro fertilization. We couldn’t afford it; we couldn’t afford not to do it. One way we tried to work through that diagnosis, our anger, and our options was to start a secret infertility blog, “Less Than a Million.” This post and what comments from 2008 that are attached to it come from that blog.—gb
We did go to the conference last week, and it was a long drive after work and a seemingly longer drive home, and we didn’t see anything of Minneapolis although we did experience the way traffic patterns have changed since the bridge collapsed last year. It was a good conference, much more focused on the Twin Cities than the “Midwest Region”—about which more later.
