一本坦诚描述胎死腹中的真实故事

 
2015年,作者怀孕满39周又6天时,当天医生向她解释说宝宝已胎死腹中,但她仍需要引产分娩。 隔日也就是预产日,作者在如潮水般的悲伤中生下了儿子Reid。9天后,她在自己的网站上发表了一篇真实赤裸的文章,她分享了产房照片,并描述每年约有260万名妇女及其家庭经历死产,但这当中却很少有人公开承认或谈论。这一篇分享文吸引了来自北美各地的数千个留言和分享。 她的故事很快被加拿大的国家新闻媒体报导,而她也透过自己的Instagram获得许多正面力量,这些支持来自其他遭受同样经验的母亲们,她们一起在社交平台分享失去孩子的故事互相鼓励对方从悲伤中走出来。

这本书让人看到尽管一个女人面临着人生中的最大悲伤难关,在她学会失去後的人生中,仍不放弃地去寻找自己对於母亲角色的定义。一本以坦诚丶勇敢又鼓舞人心的口吻而成的回忆录。
