Every once in a while I mention Getupgrrl, who has been keeping a weblog ever since she first started infertility treatment a long time ago. I'm only one one hundreds and hundred of people who have followed her story, which has been consistently thought provoking and funny, but otherwise spanned the emotional gamit from frightening and tragic to this newest chapter, in which a healthy child is born. He was brought into the world by a good woman who agreed to be his gestational surrogate. She will forever be his birth mother, though the egg and sperm that created him came from Getupgrrl and her husband.
Getupgrrl's story isn't there for you to read in its entirely. She's had trouble with people filching her stuff without permission, and so she only leaves one or two posts up at a time. I'm hoping she'll turn the whole thing into a book at some point, because it's a story that deserves to be heard by a wider audience.
In the meantime, you can read her post about the day her son was born.
What a lucky boy he is.
