Blazingly Honest Novel Presents a Realistic Portrait of Coping with Infertility

The Waiting Womb by Jill Sayre is a gripping novel that examines infertility treatment and alternatives to creating a family

LANGHORNE, PA (PRWeb) February 9, 2007 -- Jill Sayre's dark comedy The Waiting Womb is a timely fictional tale that explores the heartbreak of infertility treatments and the process of adoption.

Planned Parenthood estimates that 4.9 million couples face infertility. Twenty percent of those cases are unexplained. Author Jill Sayre knows first-hand the trauma of infertility, having suffered it herself. Wanting to help others going through the same thing, she wrote her moving, healing and humorous novel, The Waiting Womb.

Warmly written, The Waiting Womb tells the story of a married couple's struggle to conceive. Friends and family do not comprehend their grief and trauma, and their marriage is threatened by the emotional and financial stress infertility causes. Professional therapy and best girlfriends keep Julia Leary from losing her mind and her sense of humor. Children can grow in your heart as well as in your womb, and parenting, suggests Sayre, is about raising a child, not seeding one.

An inspiration for anyone who is trying to conceive or who is considering adoption, The Waiting Womb is the perfect read for any woman who feels she is going through infertility alone. Ms. Sayre delivers strong female characters and lots of laughs. There is no control over life or fertility, suggests Sayre, but there are always unexpected miracles.
