She joined the FM WORLD & became a fully fledged FM business partner, launching her little sideline here in Aus back in 2020 called

Alison & Derek’s Eggcellent Adventure: An IVF Journey

Today from 1pm Episode 8, Seasons 3 of @ White Noise will be live across all podcast platforms.

For todays episode I sit down with the very lovely & very courageous Alison McParland. 
Myself & Alison have known each other quite along time as my Nanny Lily & her Mother Ann were very good friends. 

Alison opens up to me about her difficulty conceiving & the journey she went on through IVF. 

Having children is a basic human desire & most couples build their lives together, around the idea of nurturing children who will follow in their footsteps.

To not to be able to have a child is a confronting issue & going through IVF can be a difficult & lonely road with several unknowns. 

Alison talks to me about that road she went on & why she has always been a firm believer in what’s for you, will not go past you! 

What a really lovely chat, there were plenty of laughs & a few tears. 
It’s such an Irish trait to try  make light out of what sometimes can be a very difficult & tough time in one’s life. 
For anyone listening in, Please know your not alone. There is many people out there in the exact same boat as you. 

I think we all need a little reminder to always remain kind & respectful to everyone you cross paths with. You never know what the person beside you is going through. 

Alison, thank you so much for coming on the podcast & being so open & honest with me. It’s not an easy thing to talk about on such a public platform but you did it so beautifully. 
I’ll see ye soon for that pint! 

Take care & god bless xxx

John Paul tragically lost his wife Susan, 35, to cancer in November 2021, just four weeks after she collapsed at home with severe abdominal pain that doctors first believed was appendicitis.

JP it was a pleasure speaking with you, your a phenomenal Father & a true gentleman. Susan will be guiding you all the way, I’ve no fear of that. 

Sending you, Leo & Lucy all the love in the world & best of luck in your new chapter together in Ireland & all the best with your campaigning for Susan.

Sarah’s Nanny Kathleen & my Granda were Brother & Sister. They were very much alike in regards to their humour & wit. They were the best of characters to be around, always full of divilment & craic! 

Sarah reminisces to me about her Nanny & all the wonderful times they shared together.  Growing up she was always there for Sarah & when Kathleen got that bit older & needed that bit of extra support, Sarah was always there for her, as was all the family.

I hope their all up there celebrating Kathleen’s big 80th birthday today. Lord, could you imagine the craic?
