I Wanted to Talk to You About Him narrates the true ordeal of a mother faced with the harrowing decision of whether to end her pregnancy after a prenatal diagnosis indicates a disability. It's a chronicle of turbulent times endured by a couple expecting their second child, diagnosed with Down syndrome. For parents who already love their child, the very notion of having to make such a choice is inconceivable. The book also delves into a decade of perinatal grief, marked by doubts and, more significantly, the guilt and shame that one must eventually overcome.
