I began concocting the idea of organizing the first ever Utah Infertility Awareness Event only two months ago, and now that I look back on those two months, there have been a multitude of “never knews” that continue to amaze me. Here are a few…

1. I never knew that 2 months would fly by so quickly. Tuesday. Wednesday. Thursday. Friday…and then it is here!

2. I never knew that I could pull a committee together with so many resources and amazing skills. How wonderful it has been to rely on capable and talented people!

3.  I never knew that there would be such a motivated response from fertility specialists and other professionals who support couples who are dealing with infertility. I have been so blessed by involvement from so many sources.

4.  I never knew that we would be able to offer so many resources to each participant as they try to understand their journey to a family. I am excited as companies have shared fabulous literature that we can pass on to our friends on Saturday. You will be amazed at what we have to give!

5.  I never knew that out of this singular event, would I be able to fan a flame of such intense interest from the community that I am considering creating more events, providing more resources, and encouraging more dialogue in new and different ways. We shall see what happens…

I am beyond excited as every last detail is falling into place. With nearly every seat full (we only have a few spots left), with great prizes for the giveaway, with fabulous food planned, and with noteworthy speakers…how could I not be excited? It will be a great event!!

One last thing…I have posted April’s Think & Share responses, which are absolutely amazing! I cannot express how impressed I am with the words of such great women. To check out the responses, click here.
