Book description
The bond between a mother and her child is the closest there is. A
mother would do anything to protect her child. But what happens when the
child is suffering beyond imagination? Should a mother allow her child
to die to save them from pain?Frances Inglis and Kay Gilderdale were
faced with this appalling dilemma, and, after intense private torment,
acted to end the lives of their children. In dramatic cases, which
gripped the hearts of everyone who followed them, both mothers were
prosecuted for their actions: Frances was found guilty and went to
prison, Kay was set free. A Mothers Love is the story of these two women
and the decisions they had to make. A majority of the British people now
believes that the law needs to be changed in such right-to-die cases. If
you were caught in such a nightmarish situation, what would you do?
