Doree's book is (finally!) out on Tuesday, and she's stressed. Doree and Matt talk about what it's like to put IVF on hold for a couple of months, and they realize how much brain space it had been occupying for such a long time. They also reminisce about Boston and Matt lets his accent slip, and they hear from a listener who loves data maybe even more than doctors!
