The book is an Irish Couple’s Journey Through IVF, Adoption and Surrogacy.

Written with profound honesty, Fiona and Seán tell a personal story story highlights the dire need for new legislation to provide for and protect Irish parents and their children born through surrogacy, and explores the complex legal, ethical and social issues created in this legal vacuum.
