Publisher's Description
Hope and Help For Those Struggling With Infertility When the professional advice isn't enough, and you've had your fill of well-meaning comments from those who haven't experienced infertility, Marlo Schalesky wants you to know you are not alone. The true stories she tells of couples who share your hopes, fears, frustrations, and the comfort only God can bring will encourage your heart. Infertility strikes at the core of what it means to be a woman or man, tests marriages, and shakes faith. The honest, open, and emotionally resonant first-person stories in Empty Womb, Aching Heart will touch your life--as you "cry in the diaper aisle," wonder if you "are less of a woman," ask "How far should we go?" or whisper to God, "It's not fair."
Endorsements (3)
“us to the lives of people who are discouraged, feel isolated, and very much alone. Their stories lift our hearts and our faith to see hope from a new or clearer perspective.”
“Empty Womb, Aching Heart is a refreshingly candid account of the transformational faith journey through infertility. As the author skillfully leads the reader through agonizing encounters with the unfulfilled desire for children, she provides insight and wisdom into a growing awareness of God’s grace. Surely the candor that allows the reader to capture an inside view of the continuous emotional hurdles will inspire other hurting women and men to confront their own struggles so that they, too, may discover Christ’s love in the face of suffering.”
“With sensitivity and understanding, Marlo Schalesky has written a thoughtful and compassionate book about infertility. She doesn’t gloss over the pain, but she does offer helpful insights born out of experience. Coming alongside the reader, Marlo extends caring and comfort through real-life stories. Finally, here is a book that deals honestly with the emotional, mental, and spiritual challenges of infertility. I highly recommend it!”
