About this ebook

A starkly emotional account from a NICU Mother on her daughter's fight for life and often turbulent journey through NICU after being born suddenly at just 25 weeks into pregnancy.

Giving a uniquely raw insight into life as a parent in the NICU, Natasha takes you on an intimate journey through her first experience.

This story of love and survival through NICU offers support for families and their supporters as they find their way through their premature journeys. A must-read for a glimpse into this highly medicalised world through a parent's eyes.

From the readers:

 

"Poignant and humbling to read"  Wesley

 

"Beautiful, raw emotion, the fear and joy of mothering a premature baby. A true "rollercoaster" ride. Keeps the reader on the edge, willing this baby every breath and heartbeat till the end." Fiona

 

"I found this book very cathartic to read…It is an honest, wonderful read about surviving the most traumatic start to your child's life, and also shows how amazing the NICU team is…" Carol

Natasha Sinclair

With stories that provoke deep emotional reactions in readers or a twist of a viewpoint that stirs fresh thought.Natasha doesn't subscribe to boxing art off into a single genre or indeed anything in life -- art should be unapologetic in its freedom. Her own writing spans genres including - speculative, horror, psychological and erotica.She has independently published work, compiled and edited collections, and has contributed to several anthologies. Natasha supports other creatives by way of proofreading, editing, and creating promotional material via her Word Refinery services, linked on her site, ClanWitch.comOut-with writing and editing, she's an avid gig-goer, reader, vegan, home educating, nature-loving, adopter of wonky animals.
