The difficulty of IVF or of any fertility issues is the hope and the shattered hope, the dream that it might happen this time and then it doesn't happen.

Don't waste a minute not being happy. If one window closes, run to the next window- or break down a door.

Smoking kills. If you're killed, you've lost a very important part of your life.
