Description

A newly wedded couple is full of life, love, and inspiration. They have everything they've always wanted except a child. From unsuccessful attempts to repeated failures, the two newlyweds face a menacing foe: sterility.

Together, they embark on the confusing journey that is in vitro fertilization. Haunted by the hyperbole of WebMD and the guilt of infertility, Guillaume experiences the daily embarrassment of sperm donations, tests with dreaded results and endless consultations--not to mention the specter of his own estranged father who reappears suddenly in his life.
With realistic, self-effacing charm, William Roy humbly and accurately shares a deeply human experience that is propelled by unshakable hope.

Featured Reviews

This is a heart wrenching story of a couple struggling to get pregnant. William struggles with the issues of being sterile and watching Emma go through the procedure of IVF. A few funny scenes as the author attempts to describe what is happening scientifically, and I really enjoyed the scene of the "balls-rosary", but so much of this was just heart breaking. I appreciate that he made those boundaries with his birth-father who had decided when William was 13 that he did not want to deal with a child in his new marriage. I'm shocked that he even gave his father a second chance at the end. I'm just really happy for the ending, I hope there is more joy to come in their lives.

The story of a man and his wife's struggle to have a child via IVF. The endless appointments, the tight time restrictions, the injections, the shame. All of that is explored in this unique graphic novel.
