She also said in an interview “I kinda got to the point where I was like, you know, if you don’t laugh at it, you’re gonna cry. So you might as well enjoy the good and the bad and the mortifying and the book is all about the mortifying.” In short, her whole life is what inspired her to change her way of thinking about all the drama she endured and accept herself the way she is now because of those events, which lead to the writing of this

    She did not delve into much detail about how her actions affected her relationships with her family and her lovers, which we can assume could be strenuous at times. When she begins to discuss the issues of having children of her own, she even goes so far as to question if people with manic-depression are in danger of becoming endangered.

    In the last ten to twenty years there has been an increase in infertility among women. This report is being designed to answer the following question: What are the causes of infertility in present-day Canada?
