You get married, go on honeymoon, fall pregnant, have babies and live happily ever after right? Well, apparently not. This is the true story of a couple’s very real battle with childlessness and their endless efforts to make their dream of raising a baby together true.

 

With brutal honesty and witty humour the reader is taken on a rollercoaster ride of pain, laughter, disappointment, heartbreak, loss and ultimately incredible happiness (with a tear.)  This book does not only tell their very intimate tale of infertility, numerous infertility treatments and their adoption journey, but is also an invaluable source of information on these subjects.  So together with a personal glimpse into the writer’s life (which is sometimes uncomfortably, yet brutally honest) you are presented with the raw facts about infertility and adoption that you don’t read about in other books.

 

Regarding ADOPTION, this book is a FIRST in SOUTH AFRICA! Before, readers had to make do with overseas books that are not relevant at all with regards to adoption in South Africa.  And although you are presented with cold hard facts, it is softened by the very real and personal story of the author’s struggle to have a child and the hard road of adoption.

 

So whether you’re looking for facts about infertility, artificial reproductive technology and adoption; or if you’re just looking for a good read, you’ve found the right book.  A thoroughly enjoyable read! (Anonymous)
