When Barry and Quinton Keyser met over a bonfire on a full moon South African night, they had no idea that the following 15 years would be spent on a heart-wrenching quest to become parents.
The couple travelled to New Zealand from South Africa 10 years ago with two bags of clothing and $6000 in their pockets.
Barry, a nursing practitioner, and office manager Quinton gained New Zealand residency and studied towards their chosen careers, eventually buying and renovating the Manawatū home they share with their three toy poodles Jasper, Gemma and Ruby.
But there is a big piece of the family puzzle missing, and both men feel they are slowly running out of time to find a path to parenthood.
