Now through May 1, 2010 is National Infertility Awareness Week.

According to RESOLVE:

“Infertility affects approximately 10% of the population. Since infertility strikes diverse groups – affecting people from all socioeconomic levels and cutting across all racial, ethnic and religious lines – chances are great that a friend, relative, neighbor or perhaps you are attempting to cope with the medical and emotional aspects of infertility”.

Video is by singer/songwriter Sarah Motes Ashley, who had 6 IVF procedures. Updated: Please note that Ms. Ashley’s site (which Jannie mentioned in a blog comment) does contain pictures that may be triggering for some. I was not aware when I posted this video that her circumstances had changed and just wanted to make infertile readers aware that seeking out her blog may present pictures you are not up to seeing at this time.

Interested in taking action to support patients with infertility? Check out the “Become an Advocate” page on RESOLVE’s newly revamped website by clicking the yellow badge below. (Readers who have a badge like this on your own blogs, please update the links on your sites to reflect the new web address for RESOLVE’s advocacy work). Thank you!

Alicia had mentioned RESOLVE’s Advocacy Day for Infertility Awareness to me recently and that she was thinking of posting the video you’ll see below. (Thanks for reminding me of the date for Advocacy Day, Alicia)!

Here is her post:

Yaya Stuff: RESOLVE Advocacy Day

Back in January 2009, I had posted INFERTILITY, IVF, & Keeping Hope: Sarah Motes Ashley – Singer. Songwriter.

Since it has been several months, I thought I’d repost the video today in honor of RESOLVE’s Advocacy Day.

To learn more about RESOLVE’s Advocacy Day, see this link:

RESOLVE Advocacy Day: Why Me? Why Now?

I also took Kelly Damron’s suggestion and tweeted about RESOLVE Advocacy Day, per her post: June 25th Advocacy Day and I am a fan of RESOLVE on Facebook.

Infertility is a devastating condition that causes heartbreak for so many. Please lift your voice on behalf of infertile patients everywhere. Please check out the RESOLVE site listed above for more information.

Thank you!
