And to boldly step into the future, I did it in video form!Welcome to another My Why from Claire Sandys, co-host of The Silent Why podcast. My Why episodes are weekly audio shorts of my latest blog post from the website: thesilentwhy.com/blog. Not every story of infertility ends with a baby, and that was sadly our story too.
