Candice Williams shares her inspiring journey with IVF and the challenges she faced to become a mother.

She is a prominent advocate for IVF. Today she reflects on the difficult road she had to endure, just to be able to give birth to her own baby. Her story is a remarkable insight into the mental and physical challenges that many women deal with, to have a baby. Not taking it for granted. A walking miracle.
