Ten Fingers & Ten Toes is the moving story of how an ordinary family coped with the death of their youngest child. Set in South County Dublin against the backdrop of Ireland's Celtic Tiger, Yvonne Joye documents her deepest thoughts during the most difficult period of her life. Caught up with the outward trappings of wealth and the pressures of modern life, Yvonne was determined to have it all: the perfect marriage, the perfect house, and the perfect family. Juggling three kids, a hefty mortgage, a busy husband and overseeing the extension of the family home, her life was to take an unexpected twist when she and her husband tried for their fourth child. With self-deprecating humour and brutal honesty, she tells the heart-wrenching story of how she and her husband struggled to retain their dream while coping with the unexpected death of their new baby.
