I certainly hope that in-vitro isn't all the horrible things you say it is because it is my only chance of ever having a child. I am fully capable of producing eggs and carrying a baby in my womb. Unfortunately, the one tube I have left is so damaged that nothing can pass, thereby making conception impossible. I have had a strong desire to be a mother for the last 16 years. If you've never been deprived of something that is your heart's desire, you don't know how sick my heart feels at times. It is so painful that I hardly discuss it with even those closest to me. I didn't even realize that Steven, my sweet, loving husband, feels my pain until I saw his response to your post. Please don't be so quick to judge.
