Editorial Review:
Women who are anxious to conceiveand who have yet to conceiveknow about waiting. Waiting is the hallmark of infertility. You wait in doctors' offices. You wait to ovulate. You wait for prescriptions to be filled. You wait for the pregnancy test indicator to light up. You wait for a miracle, and then you wait again.
Inconceivable is the remarkable true-life story of Shannon Woodwarda woman who stopped waiting her life away. She wrote this book for other women who've been waitingfor women who can't afford the next round of medical treatments, who can't bear to let their feeble hopes rise again only to have them crash to the ground in disappointment.
Woodward revisits eighteen years of personal frustration, pain and anger. She speaks of healing, but not the kind that other women in her condition have prayed for. The healing she has experienced is the healing of walking another paththe path of peace that she is uniquely equipped to share.

Average Rating: 
Rating: - I can't stop talking about this book
It's true. After reading the first chapter, I found that I just kept talking about this book to everyone I saw. It is so well written, so touching and thought provoking. I felt like I was sitting down with the author, sharing our stories back and forth. Excellent book!
Rating: - Comforting and Well Written
Being a woman who's been through five miscarriages, I could sense the comfort and hope that this book brings to those who are unable to conceive. The loss of a pregnancy or the fact that you can't conceive at all can be a dark place in one's life.
The author's own experience offers hope and opens new paths for women who need a hand to guide them through this dark time.
As with her last book, Shannon Woodward paints vivid pictures with her words, in a style that is unique ... Read More
Rating: - A WOMAN'S JOURNEY FROM HEARTACHE TO PEACE
This book shares the author's journey of learning to accept the fact that she'll never be able to conceive children. Her story begins in 1988, when her doctor discloses the dreaded news. She said his words became like "a constant, haunting hum in my head, like a song you can't shake -- a song with the power to drive you insane. His voice was inescapable."
Shannon Woodward explores her pain and subsequent healing in intimate detail for readers. She takes us back to her childhood, where ... Read More
Rating: - Journey of Healing
I am absolutely awed by Shannon Woodward's ability to tell this story. A story lived by many, but voiced by far too few.
She has taken this uncomfortable and sometimes extremely painful journey and helped forge a way to healing.
I would highly recommend this book to any women who is struggling with issues surrounding infertility. Sometimes it's good to know you're not walking through darkness alone.
Rating:  - More for those who decide to pursue adoption
In this book, Shannon Woodward basically shares her personal story and struggle with infertility. While I related to many of the feelings she expressed, and found some things helpful in the book, overall I did not identify with most of what she wrote about. Her book largely covers her pursuit of adoption, and the many failed attempts she endured. While I found her stories engaging, I personally have not chosen the adoption route. I have pursued my path more through medical intervention to conceive ... Read More
