Description

Expecting a child is usually tied to hopes and joyful worries. But if the diagnosis for the baby is incompatible with life, everything is different. A mother has to decide whether to interrupt or carry such a pregnancy—and to go through a painful path regardless of what choice she makes. How should a woman behave so grief doesn’t break her? What about her family? And what can doctors and society do for them?

In her autobiographical book, Anna Starobinets, with astonishing courage, tells her own story. “Look at Him” is not only an honest and open conversation on an incredibly difficult topic. It’s a kind of survival guide for those who find themselves facing grief that seems unbearable.
