I saw the post by ooocarrie and the responses.  I felt this way as well with every new baby announcement be it on Facebook or otherwise.  One of my friends who was going throught IF with me sent me this.  It helped.  Thought I would forward it along.

    touching story.  A few years ago I heard of a sister that carried her sister's babies after the woman had ovarian cancer.

    I feel like a stronger warning is needed for this article. I'm now crying at work.
