"Becoming a mother has been my deepest desire. But it's not happening. Now what?" Through her very open and honest first-hand account of her seven-year struggle to conceive, titled Abundantly Empty, Cathy hopes to help remove the stigma, improve understanding and provide inspiration to others on how to cope and keep moving forward. Abundantly Empty delves deep into the world of infertility and offers an insightful 360-degree perspective, with informative contributions from leading fertility specialists, including Professor Thabo Matsaseng, and her clinical psychologist, as well as input from her husband Julian, family and friends. The egg donors and surrogates share their experiences too. In clear, direct 'journal' language, the book traces the highs and lows, the elation and intense grief of the infertility rollercoaster. It also explores its impact on Cathy's marriage, her friendships and her career. The primary reason for writing this book, Cathy says, was to send a 'You are not alone' message to other couples battling to start a family, to break the silence and increase understanding of what it takes to survive infertility and retain hope, courage and meaning. Abundantly Empty is an emotionally gripping, heart-warming and useful must-read not just for those on the fertility journey, but also for those on the sidelines who want to provide support, but don't know how. ... "Cathy's detailed account of infertility's complex journey will be both fascinating and insightful to many people struggling with infertility." Dr Paul le Roux, CEO, Cape Fertility Clinic "Cathy's story is frank, honest, insightful." Women & Home

As one of the most heartbreaking experiences in life, infertility can shatter dreams and crush spirits in its unyielding wake. Almost taboo, this struggle is rarely discussed within many Christian circles, which can leave affected couples with more questions than answers. The Inconceivable Truth provides a new approach for addressing some of the struggles Christian couples face today and the truth of what it is to be unable to conceive. It is the author’s hope that as you confront some of the same issues she did, her story will help you to make God-honouring decisions and understand better the place of infertility in our lives. To find peace and joy in this difficult season, our counsel must be rooted in the Bible and in Christ. Join Joanna as she shares what God taught her during her family’s infertility journey. May His book come alive in ways that will excite your soul and draw your heart and eyes upward to Jesus.

For You is a book about what it takes for some parents to finally have a child of their own. Infertility is an all-too-common hurdle that many people must overcome when wishing to grow their family, and reproductive assistance is often needed in order to make their dreams come true. There are not many children’s books currently on the market that talk about fertility treatments. Thus, with compassion, honesty, and hope, Robbyn Danyluk—who underwent in vitro fertilization (IVF) in order to conceive—addresses the difficulties that surround infertility, speaking to both the children created through reproductive technology, as well as to the parents who have gone through—or are going through—IVF and other fertilization processes. Ultimately, For You is a book about the power of a parent’s love, and how it extends to children even before they are tiny cells on this earth. There are many hardships encountered during an infertility journey, but nothing is more powerful than the love parents feel when finally holding their child in their arms.
