The 1st DIY LFCA

Well, we've had other DIY LFCAs, but we've never tried this before on a day that I can't post. And since I'm on the Hill today for Resolve's Advocacy Day, it seemed like a good time to give this a whirl. Let's use the comment section below to serve as the list. This is how to leave a comment for support.
  1. Leave the comment anonymously (even if you're okay with people knowing who submitted it, let's have everyone use the anonymous feature to be consistent).
  2. Choose a category: Miscellaneous News, Birthdays or Anniversaries, Loss Remembrances, Loss Announcements, Miscellaneous Support, Bed Rest Babes, Pregnancy Announcements, or Birth/Adoption Announcements.
  3. Link to the blog by using the format below. Obviously change the category name, blog url, and message to suit your blurb. This is just a sample. When put in the comment section like this, it will turn out looking like this: Support: Stirrup Queens is having a hard time. Please go over and give her a hug.
And then don't forget to use the list, click through, and leave comments.

If you would also like the blurb to appear in the next LFCA, submit it additionally to the LFCA form.

We can discuss tomorrow how well this works...

After a second opinion at Big Clinic that was very pessimistic. I've decided eh What the Hell and will be going for third and final IVF at my regular clinic. Cycle estimated start date July 18th. Still would love any help with offsetting the costs of the copayments and the Man in the Can. Donate Buttons are on my blog!
