Lisa, 39, and husband Dermot, 37, are from Co Galway. They have been together for seven years. Lisa was diagnosed with cancer of the womb when the pair were dating, requiring a hysterectomy. Thankfully the cancer was contained & Lisa didn’t need further treatment. Lisa’s ovaries were OK so the couple were able to use their own eggs and sperm. They created embryos with Galway Fertility Clinic in 2016 & shipped them to Intersono in tLviv. Their first transfer resulted in a miscarriage. Their second let to a beautiful baby boy born on 12th of June 2018.
