The content describes the author's personal experience with ectopic pregnancies, a life-threatening condition where the embryo implants outside the uterus. The author had two ectopic pregnancies, the second of which was a baby girl named Annika, whose heartbeat the author witnessed on the ultrasound before the pregnancy had to be terminated to save the author's life.
Devastated by the loss, the author met with a Thai surgeon-doctor who offered IVF as the only hope to have a child. The content highlights the author's emotional journey, the cringe-worthy language used by the doctor, and the author's wave of hope upon hearing that IVF could provide a solution. The narrative provides a glimpse into the author's life in Cambodia with her husband Ken, and the immense grief and determination to overcome the challenges of infertility.
