Your friend is an amazing woman - for any person to go through all of that or even just some sort of issue breaks my heart (obviously this is sensitive for me). I'm glad for the technology that we are able to access but it upsets me that sooooo many people have to resort to it. I wish your friend all the very best in her endeavours to become a parent, I am one of the lucky ones that has a child from natural conception and sometimes have to pinch myself to remind myself how lucky and blessed I truly am.
