In vitro fertilization (IVF) is a process of fertilization where an egg is combined with sperm outside the body, in vitro. The process involves monitoring and stimulating a woman's ovulatory process, removing an ovum or ova from the woman's ovaries, and letting sperm fertilize them in a culture medium in a laboratory.

The IVF industry is as good as its reputation? What are the dangers and ethics of what is now the thriving billion-dollar IVF industry?

This book is about Sandra, age 24, who was caught up in the experiments of the pioneers of IVF who needed healthy ovum for their work. The removal of most of her ovaries left her body shocked into early menopause and rapid aging. She is now almost permanently confined to a wheelchair.
Sandra raises questions that should be of concern to all of us, but through all her work and research she demonstrates the faith in God that brought her to a new understanding and acceptance of her condition. It made her realize that she must speak out.

This book is a brave and beautiful account of a life well-lived and a continual struggle on behalf of those who suffer and against those who sought to take advantage of the plight of the disadvantaged to promote themselves and their reputations. If they ever read it, the latter will not take kindly to how they are portrayed, but it is an honest and accurate view of the dark side of medical fame.
