Guest:AuthorCathy Raubenheimer

Cathy Raubenheimer endured a 7-year struggle to have a baby, including 14 IVF cycles, 3 egg donations, and 2 attempts at surrogacy.  She has recently shared her story in a book called “Abundantly Empty – Surviving Infertility with Grace”.  It’s a book that may well be a lifeline to couples who are battling infertility, as it speaks utterly frankly about the processes involved, the devastating emotional impact as well as the physical side effects, and the unbearable grief that accompanies each failed attempt.
