My Biography
In my professional capacity I am a paediatric Speech & Language pathologist but.. In 2020, at 34 years old with an 18 month old child I was told I had cancer and in order to live would need to have a radical hysterectomy. In one split second my life changed drastically. Since then, I have had my halachically Jewish second child via ivf and surrogacy. I speak openly, candidly and honestly about all things cancer, infertility, ivf, surrogacy and unconditional faith in hashem. I also volunteer, helping those who have suffered in silence for years have children in unconventional ways.
