  <abstract>"I'm not picking up a heartbeat, Pam. There doesn't appear to be any fetal movement" Those words from her doctor plunged Pan Vredevelt into a deep sea of confusion and grief. What was her motherhood being taken away before it began? What good could possibly come from such a loss? This book is the outcome of her search for understanding and encouragement. With the empathy personal experience brings, she is able to gently offer comfort to the woman who has just experienced miscarriage or stillbirth, and insight to her friends and family who want to help and encourage effectively</abstract>
