On this episode of Talking Away The Taboo, Tee Simpser joins Aimee Baron, MD to talk about...

-her diabetes diagnosis which she received when she was 12, which made it natural for her to share when she had trouble getting pregnant

-her 6 years of primary infertility

-heartbreaking disappointments, life-threatening complications and all kinds of insensitive comments

-how she saw herself in the Chana/Penina story from the Book of Shmuel (book of Samuel), as she longed to be a mother, while watching everyone else around her get pregnant

-her consideration of adoption at one point

Spoiler alert: Tee does have two children, but her story teaches so many powerful lessons- 1- share your pain so that you can get the support you need 2-Call people out when they are making you uncomfortable
