In July 1996, I was diagnosed with Turner's Syndrome and as a result, I was told that I am completely infertile with little to no ovarian tissue. Moving forward to 2011, after much soul searching, my husband and myself have decided to look at our family building options and track our experience not only to demonstrate what it has been like facing this hurdle and to offer support but to give an account of how the NHS and other organisations are helping us.

Father's Day coming up
Well, it's that time of year. Yesterday, I was on the train reading the paper and a huge 12 page Father's Day offers pullout drops into my lap. Yes, I know we live in the world where 80% of people can have a family, but it still hurt. I am having a rough one this year because my DH is the only male member of his family not being a Dad or a Dad-to-be. He is going to see his dad on Sunday and I hope nothing is said. Thank goodness I won't be there. I hope he can just brush it off. At least we have our appointment in August. Sorry for the me-post but I find Father's Day so much worse than Mother's Day as it reminds me of what I can't give my husband.
