"As a physician I want to share my experience of carrying to term my daughter with trisomy 18. Our journey was beautiful and enriching, in spite of the obstacles we met in the health care system - the pressure to terminate, and the lack of medical care for babies with trisomy 18. I hope the book can be a support for other women carrying to term a baby that did not turn out as expected."

In the fall of 2008, Melanie Tioleco-Cheng received the news that no expectant mother ever wants to hear. Her baby was diagnosed with trisomy 18. As a physician, she knew exactly what this meant for her second child, Macy, and even more about how little her chance of survival was in light of her heart and lung problems. But how would Melanie explain this to her two year old? How does a parent talk about what to expect in the hospital? How can anyone prepare a child for a baby sibling who will not live very long?
