Trying

Parents often remember years later the challenges they had faced during the nine months leading to their baby's delivery. A normal pregnancy has a way of testing the relationships of soon-to-be mothers and fathers, but this is especially the case whenever a pregnancy requires some assistance from modern medical science. In his first book, BBC executive producer Cossey uses humor brilliantly to relate the difficulty that he and his wife lived through when trying to start a family. Readers who have been unable to conceive naturally might recognize parallels between their own disappointment and that of the author's. Others will certainly gain insight into the various procedures and terminology encountered within a fertility clinic. The use of comedy at times is essential in relating the frustration and humiliation that the Cosseys often endured. Fortunately, perseverance through feelings of overwhelming hopelessness and loss of control ultimately pays off for the young couple.
