Pushing 40, coping with the break-up of a four-year relationship, Julia Sweeney suddenly had a frightening revelation: "How could I forget to have a family?" She was previously divorced, with no current boyfriend - and no uterus (the result of cervical cancer and a hysterectomy).Undaunted, Sweeney decides to adopt a girl from China. Along the way, she will have to prove to herself that she is up to the challenge of motherhood. Beautifully written, wonderfully performed, In the Family Way is Sweeney's comedic monologue about the daughter who changed her life.
