In this week’s episode we pull back the curtain on how our precious little Minnie-Moo came to be.

Chloe and Ellidy share the entire back story and we chat with almost everyone involved in this utterly life changing procedure. Hear where it all began, with Laura and Chloe walking us step by step through how the idea formed on that fateful day, and what was involved in making it possible.

Then, the team responsible for bringing Minnie to life join us… from the woman who answered the desperate phone call from Chloe and set the wheels in motion… to Dr Andrew Davidson, the obstetrician-gynaecologist infertility specialist responsible for the sperm retrieval and IVF… and Dr Davidson’s wife, Louise – the fertility nurse who held Chumpy’s hand during the procedure and speaks of how she really felt his spirit was present in those moments.

This is such a touching episode. Be ready to tear up, be completely wowed and learn all about posthumous sperm retrieval.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
