A book which shall warm the hearts of millions!

This exquisitely wonderful biography is one which is, quite truly, a must to read! 'Our Miracle Called Louise' chronicles, with such accuracy, the lives of Louise Brown's parents, whilst they struggle to cope with the prospect of being unable to conceive a child.All hope appeared lost, until they discovered a doctor, of whom was pioneering a technique, in order to provide hope for couples unable to conceive naturally. This strategy is now known as In Vitro Fertilisation.As a result of this doctor's efforts, the world's first test tube baby, Louise Brown, was given life.I so enjoyed reading this novel, and am able to relate, in utmost entirety, with the pain and heartache Lesley Brown endured, before being able to conceive, for I am on quite a similar path, myself. I especially was touched when Lesley found herself, for the very first time, able to relate to another woman, who also was attempting IVF, and therefore, had endured much the same trials and tribul! ations, as did Lesley.I found this book not only to be the very best biography ever having been written, which portrayed In Vitro Fertilisation in a positive image, but also, one of which must be read and cherished by everyone (especially those of whom are finding themselves upon the road to IVF).John and Lesley Brown's heartfelt love and devotion for their daughter shines through the page, and warms your heart, to the very core.In conclusion, 'Our Miracle Called Louise' is a treasure, much worth reading. It shall provide hope for those couples, such as myself, of whom may have become disheartened amidst their struggles. Louise Brown is a perfect example of why one must never give up their wishes and dreams!
