Hello All,

I don't check my adoptionblogs email every day, but I sure am glad that I checked it in time to pass this on for us all to see. I am reprinting a letter that I got today regarding a segment on Surrogate couples, airing tomorrow morning on the Today show. Grace's ending comments about hopefully showcasing other infertility issues that couples deal with is very encouraging. I feel that the more exposure and information sharing we can do, can help with the outcomes of infertility and pregnancy loss. Please check it out.

Hi Karianne

The Today Show is airing a short documentary tomorrow
(thursday, October 12th, 8:09 AM) about surrogate
pregnancies and the struggles of infertile couples.
It's pretty powerful stuff, and we are trying to get
the word out to as many people as we possibly can.
(Thus, the impersonal email. sorry about that...)

This short documentary is part of an ongoing effort on
The Today Show to deliver more in-depth and thoughtful
coverage of issues and stories that matter to viewers.


We're hoping that tomorrow's segment reaches folks
who've had similar struggles with these issues. If it
generates a lot of feedback and reactions, then, we'll
probably follow up with additional coverage in the
coming weeks.

At any rate, I thought I'd pass along word of the show
in hopes that maybe you could help us get the word
out, or at the very least, tune in yourself and become
a part of the conversation.

If your moved by what you see or have an opinion,
please contact the Today Show at the following address
and let us know what you think:

today@nbc.com

Hopefully, this is just the first of several programs
that grapple thoughtfully with the challenges facing
couples today. Many thanks in advance.

Sincerely,

Grace Kahng
