If my IVF story helped just one person I’ll be happy

-

Iwant to thank everyone for their support following my article in The News on Tuesday about our struggle to conceive.

I intended it to help others who may be in a similar situation – if it helped just one person then I achieved what I set out to do.

I was overwhelme­d by the response from people who said they had either gone through it or were going through it and that the article resonated with them. It sparked a conversati­on between a particular group of women that I’m on a WhatsApp group with who opened up about their struggles with fertility for the first time. With all the noise from social media, it’s so important that we speak out about issues that affect us.
