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? The bond between a mother and her child is the closest there is. A mother would do anything to protect her child.
