Infertility & Beyond

Finding people to relate to gets us through the hard times. Looking forward to sharing as we move beyond #infertility! #childlessnotbychoice

@LorriLangridge What a beautiful kitty. So very sorry for your loss!

Going to miss you so much Hollie. 18 years of cuddles and mouse catching and beating up the neighbourhood cats! Our house is so quiet. You are in our hearts forever ♥️

"#Endometriosis. Its is not a women’s problem, it is a societal problem. The national strategy we are launching brings hope of a better quality of life for millions of gils and women." - Emmanuel Macron, President of France

On Jan 28 we are launching the #ActOnEndo toolkit to help endometriosis advocates in Canada contact their Member of Parliament about the need for national action on #endometriosis.

@CanbaceLife I’m so sorry to hear this! Best of luck on your other projects, Nicci & Andrew, and stay in touch, everyone! I’ll miss you all too. #CanbaceLife

Technical issues means my "IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT" didn't get published. Our other CNBC projects need more attention so we've decided not to host the #CanbaceLife Twitterchat for a while. We'll be increasing our general Twitter activity soon. We'll miss you. Keep in touch!

@CanbaceLife Sounds lovely! Would love to have a place by the water!! #CanbaceLife

@beyondinfert WOW ... just seen where Dungerness Spit it. A slightly high tide & your sleeping bag would get wet! Great excuse to go back. Mum's friends were somewhere south of Freeland. House looked out over The Sound so you could watch this shipping & little boats. Brilliant! #CanbaceLife

Welcome to today's Twitter Chat for people struggling with #Infertility or being #ChildlessNotByChoice You're not alone. Use #CanbaceLife to join the chat. How is everyone today? We're cleaning today ... which is a struggle when it's hot & humid! Having to get creative!

@CanbaceLife I mean I hope the businesses can recover. Not sure about how Covid affected the people, but I know they lost a lot of business being cut off from both Canada and the rest of the US like that! #CanbaceLife

@CanbaceLife Point Roberts really suffered with the border closures during Covid! I hope they can recover when things reopen. I remember camping near Dungeness Spit, which is down from Whidbey but on the mainland, so I’m not sure if I went to Whidbey. I’ll just have to go back! #CanbaceLife

@CanbaceLife As I googled I saw a mention of “Deception Pass” and I went there as a kid, so maybe I have been there after all. But it’s possible Deception Pass spans more than that island. Not sure where the campground is where I went. But it was an amazing spot! #CanbaceLife

@beyondinfert Sorry to hear that work is so stressful at the moment. Sign of the times! The cottage sounds a perfect way to recharge the batteries. Spent a week on Whidby Island years ago. Stunning scenery. A little further south than you: however, bet it's very similar. #CanbaceLife

@CanbaceLifeMag @CanbaceLife Yep, it’s much cheaper for the US companies to film here! #CanbaceLife

@beyondinfert @CanbaceLife Not just BC. It seems half of US TV shows are filmed in Canada. #CanbaceLife

@CanbaceLife @CanbaceLifeMag Exactly—we’ll have the whole beach to ourselves! And storm watching is fun too. Can’t beat the off-season rates either. #CanbaceLife

@beyondinfert @CanbaceLifeMag I used to love "shoulder season" trips. You can have fabulous weather and yet none of the crowds. #CanbaceLife

@CanbaceLife I’ve never been there, but googled it and it does have similar gorgeous scenery. The borders are reopening soon so I’ll have to check it out! #CanbaceLife

@CanbaceLife @CanbaceLifeMag Very lovely!! The island is beautiful. This is to make up for our June trip which got cancelled with the stricter Covid travel restrictions. #CanbaceLife

@CanbaceLifeMag @beyondinfert Oh yes ... forgot about that. LOVELY scenery!!!!! #CanbaceLife

@CanbaceLifeMag @CanbaceLife I haven’t heard of that show! Will try to find out more about it. We do get lots of people filming in BC. #CanbaceLife

@beyondinfert @CanbaceLife Sounds lovely. We've been watching a bit of Chesapeak Shores which is filmed there. #CanbaceLife

@CanbaceLife Sounds like an added bonus for sure, and so great that they got to keep their jobs! #CanbaceLife

@beyondinfert 2hrs each, every Tuesday. Father & daughter team. They came with the house & we didn't want them to not have the work. Still have to work ourselves. Andrew stims every other week. They "finger weed" & sweep up leaves etc. Looks REALLY great when they've finished. #CanbaceLife

@CanbaceLifeMag @CanbaceLife How lovely to have people to do the weeding, especially in that heat! #CanbaceLife

@beyondinfert @CanbaceLife Hi Tanya, they come every Tue for a couple of hours. We do have to do a little work (picking up fallen fruit etc...) like strimming every couple of weeks to keep things under control. That is getting less as they work on weeding. #CanbaceLife

@CanbaceLife Thank you! Yeah, work stress has been a lot lately so I’m getting them at least once a week. I can’t wait for some R&R! My sister & I are going to Vancouver Island—we’ve rented a cottage on the beach. Will be chilly, but can’t wait to eat, read, and go for walks! #CanbaceLife

@beyondinfert Sorry hear about the migraine Tanya. Hope it eases soon. Especially as you have time off work next week. Got to be fit & healthy for that! Will be having pool break after lunch. Tue morning we have the gardener here so we work in the house (keeping the pups quiet). #CanbaceLife

@CanbaceLife Sorry I didn’t have much time to chat this week! Take good care of yourselves, everyone, and hope to chat more next week xoxo #CanbaceLife

Time to say "bye bye" again. See you same time, same place next week. Time to have lunch, a siesta & a swim. Then back to organising our storage. We're "living the dream" however, I think it might be someone else's dreams as I can't remember the organising bits. #CanbaceLife
