This book is also for those who experienced it themselves. Readers will learn more about the crisis of infertility and reproductive loss, gain insight into the experience of those suffering, and acquire practical tools and strategies for helping and healing.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "I had to walk along my journey to be able to share my testimony to someone whose story is still being written." (Rosa Miller) Rosa details a very personal and inspiring memoir through her and her husband's experience to grow in faith and family. If you are expecting perfection, you will not find it here. You will only find shades of yourself and tools to help. We were never meant to be perfect and faith is not belief without doubt. It is belief despite doubt, trial, failings, suffering, naysayers, and circumstances""life. And this is very much the story of life. We know these walls of reality. Faith is strengthened by the unchanging decision we make on a day-to-day basis to follow through. With grace, determination, and a very human nature, we see the journey of one little seed of faith as it faces the lifestyle that is infertility. We listen as it is tried and found wanting. Listen as it flexes and grows. Here is the hope you were looking for. The voice to give you support, in experience, story, scripture, and insight, to guide you on your path. The equivalent of the call in the wee hours to the friend who gets you. The solace to tie your sanity to. Some answers in the dark. You are never alone.

Download or read book Understanding Reproductive Loss written by Dr Carol Komaromy and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2013-01-28 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study of human reproduction has focused on reproductive ‘success’ and on the struggle to achieve this, rather than on the much more common experience of ‘failure’, or reproductive loss. Drawing on the latest research from The UK and Europe, The United States, Australia and Africa, this volume examines the experience of reproductive loss in its widest sense to include termination of pregnancy, miscarriage, stillbirth, perinatal and infant death, as well as - more broadly - the loss of desired normative experiences such as that associated with infertility, assisted reproduction and the medicalisation of 'high risk' pregnancy and birth. Exploring the commonalities, as well as issues of difference and diversity, Understanding Reproductive Loss presents international work from a variety of multi-disciplinary perspectives and will appeal to sociologists, anthropologists and other social scientists with interests in medicine, health, the body, death studies and gender.
