Medical science is an amazing thing. Mothers can often find out the
gender of their child before it is born, but they can also find out
terrible news before the baby comes into their life. "My Child, My
Gift: A Positive Response to Serious Prenatal Diagnosis" is a look
at these unfortunate parents who are faced with a troubling forecast for
their children. Seeking to give practical advice to mothers who are
considering abortion, "My Child, My Gift" is also a spiritual
guide, intended to bring comfort as well as straight talk to expectant
mothers who find themselves in this difficult situation. "My Child,
My Gift: A Positive Response to Serious Prenatal Diagnosis" is
highly recommended for community library parenting collections.
