I especially appreciated the chapter on medical ethics, as our family has had to decide about a DNR for our 1 year old daughter who has a severe mitochondrial disorder. Your insights have helped me understand that allowing my child to die does not mean that I don't love her enough or that I'm not strong enough to handle her situation. Thank you again, and remember that you have helped at least one family immensely.
