“I think that Mother’s Day weekend was such a fitting time for this,” said Rene Danford, a former SIRM(SM) patient and mother of 2 IVF children from New Orleans, Louisiana. “Motherhood is something that all of us have desperately yearned and struggled for and it wouldn’t have happened without the help of these wonderful doctors.”
