About this episode
Meredith Boddington, or Merry, as she likes to be called, went through her 20s and 30s looking for Mr Right. Raised on a sheep farm near Naracoorte in South Australia, Merry trained as a teacher. Her work took her across South Australia and into Victoria. But still no Mr Right. And then she met Wayne. A farmer who was also from Naracoorte. It turned out the person she had been looking for for all those years was a bloke from her country town! Merry and Wayne hit it off instantly, and after they got married, they knew they wanted a baby. So, they went to the local GP, who sent them to Adelaide - a 4 hour drive away - to see an IVF specialist. Merry was approaching 50, and knew it wasn't going to be easy. After 12 rounds of IVF and an egg donor, Merry fell pregnant at 49. Max, her son, is now 15 years old, and Merry joins me to share her remarkable story, and to give hope to those who still haven't found the one. This is her story. In addition to locations in Victoria, NSW, SA, WA, ACT and TAS, you can also find CABLE in over 40 independent fashion stockists across Australia, and 18 in New Zealand.
