It was the best of times: a young
couple whose life was a continuous sunrise, expecting their third child, with
not even a hint of trouble. Then the sky clouded over. Then came symptoms,
treatment, diagnosis, verification. Her kidneys were failing. Life would never
be the same - and might even be coming to an end.
This is a story of the incredible strength, courage, and
resourcefulness of a husband and wife, left almost on their own and given little
hope. They would not surrender to the "inevitable." With deepening devotion to
one another and infinite faith in the mercy of the Creator, they would not give
up - until the emergency call came on Shabbos evening: "A kidney is available.
You must come immediately." And they did. The Concorde brought them to New York
and emergency surgery vindicated their faith.
Mrs. Miriam Dansky chronicles their story like a
poet. Beautifully and movingly written, this is a book that will thrill and
inspire; it's for everyone, and especially for people facing illness.
