- Synopsis
- This memoir, based on diary entries, is a frank, moving and at times humorous account of Matt Barwick&’s struggle with infertility, and diagnosis with bipolar disorder triggered by family suicide. At twenty-nine, still childless after a year of trying, Matt and his wife Ali realised that starting a family was not going to be the &‘cinch&’ it appeared to be for most of their friends. The couple start a crash course in conception from a straight-talking fertility guruand the journey towards more serious medical intervention begins. Already feeling the strain of infertility and the recurring cycle of disappointment, Matt&’s world comes crashing down when he loses his only brother to suicide, resulting from depression that was largely hidden from the world.
