Disrupting Grace
Kristen RichbergPaperback 2010-02-01
Publisher Description
We have two children. We used to have three. Our third child didn�t grow up and leave home, she didn�t die. We relinquished her. Aren�t adoption stories supposed to have happy endings? While there are many adoption stories that do have happy endings, this is not one of them. And we�ve come to learn we are not alone. More and more families are finding themselves in situations similar to ours, feeling like there is no way out. This book is my story of adopting a child who was unable to attach. It is a chronicle of investment and sacrifice in our daughter, the pain and loss we experienced, the grief of darkened hopes and loss of a dream. It is also a story of grace and healing, of relinquishment and new beginnings.
