4.0 out of 5 stars
Great resource for LDS,
This review is from: Lost Children: Coping With Miscarriage for Latter-Day Saints (Paperback)
All of us at some time or another are faced with the heartbreak of miscarriage, either in our own lives or in the lives of friends and loved ones. This book takes a sensitive look at how this fits into God's plan. While it doesn't fully answer the questions of "Why" and "What is next" it helps bring peace to those who suffer the loss of a child not ready for the world. I've given this book twice, once to family and once to a friend. It helped me to know that I had let them know I cared.
5.0 out of 5 stars
Full of Knowledge and Understanding,

This review is from: Lost Children: Coping With Miscarriage for Latter-Day Saints (Paperback)
This book is wonderful resource not only for those who have had a miscarriage, but also for those who have a loved one who has miscarried. Author Rachelle Christensen uses facts, spiritual insight, and compassion, with an overarching tenderness that comes from personal experience, to give help and understanding to those coping with the very real emotions that accompany miscarriage. I highly recommended this book for anyone struggling with this issue.

Powerful help for the grieving,
By Tristi Pinkston "Freelance Editor, Author" (Orem, UT United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Lost Children: Coping With Miscarriage for Latter-Day Saints (Paperback)
I strongly recommend this book for anyone who has gone through the loss of a child through miscarriage. It is a sensitive, spiritual, and gentle guide through the process of grieving and toward the hope that there is a happy reunion waiting on the other side, with the testimony that our Savior is mindful of our every need and will see us through as we put our trust in Him.
