My friend Kate was diagnosed as a carrier of Fragile X when she was 23 years old. At the time, her geneticist said it was nothing to be concerned about, and to get in touch when she wanted to start a family. In 2020, Kate and her husband Will started their fertility journey, and are still in the messy middle of it. Kate talks with great warmth and poise about the consequences of her diagnosis, the highs and lows of IVF treatments and what helps her get through the lows (hint: bring ice cream!).
