In this gut-wrenching and deeply personal narrative, a woman finds herself at the crossroads of love, faith, motherhood, and devastating choice. After surviving postpartum depression, miscarriage, and the relentless pressure to "redeem" herself as a mother, she is blessed—and burdened—by a third unexpected pregnancy. With her marriage on fragile ground, finances stretched thin, and society whispering that motherhood is foolish, she faces the impossible: keep the baby or keep her world intact?
Told with unflinching honesty and heartbreaking vulnerability, The Lost Mother follows one mother's internal war as she wrestles with guilt, shame, love, and longing. From the warmth of her children's laughter to the sterile coldness of an abortion clinic, her story is a quiet scream for grace in a world quick to judge.
This is not just a story about choice. It's about the silence that follows it. The grief no one sees. The prayers whispered in desperation. And the courage it takes to face the aftermath of a decision that can never be undone.
A brave, haunting, and ultimately compassionate account for anyone who's ever loved a child they never got to hold.
