It Gets Better Video . . .

I saw this and of course, ended up in tears. Growing Generations clients Bill and Bill, with their family that they created through Surrogacy, explain to teens who are thinking of suicide or who just feel alone . . . . It Gets Better . . .

As an ALLY, I try to share my experiences with Surrogacy so that other women may think this is something they might consider doing as well. So far I know of at least five women who have applied to be or who have become Surrogates since meeting me or running into my blog. I hope that it spreads, that they may be a positive catalyst for others to become open about the idea of being a Surrogate too.

Who knows, 20 years from now, when my children talk about how their mom helped 2 different couples become families, maybe someone will decide Surrogacy is for them as well . . . . and become a surrogate for a man who remembers that as a teen, he didn't think it would get better . . .

. . . but it will, because I promise I will fight for your rights until the day I die.
