About this ebook
Wendy feels abandoned and alone in a cold northeastern college town surrounded by the untroubled youth of her generation. She has escaped the bleak existence of her past caring for a father wallowing in alcoholism and self-pity, but she shares nothing in common with the carefree crowd around her.
Finally convinced that her abdominal pain is the cancer that stole her beloved mother, she seeks aid and solace at the Emergency Room. Despair compounds Wendys depression when she discovers that she is carrying a child. Guilt wracks her as she struggles with her infidelities, and shame humbles her before the handsome young intern so anxious to help her.
Teetering on the edge of a high cliff of helplessness, grace rescues her in the coincidence of the young intern and the miracle of the animate child within her. The faith she learns to embrace from the unborn blessing in her womb propels her from an existence of desperation to a life of unforeseen joy and promise.
