Description: This first-hand account tells the tale of my aunt, Gerardine Gleeson, and her struggle to conceive a child. It was written by her adoring husband, John. She died due to medical negligence. It is a heart-wrenching tale of love and loss. It is also cautionary for all those going down the path of IVF to be very careful. This is a beautiful, well-written story and everyone will resonate with the feelings of the author, due to the untimely death of a loved one, in some way.
