Embracing Quincy, Our Journey Together

What happens when you're told your baby will not live? And if by some miracle she does live, she will be extremely disabled?

Embracing Quincy takes you on the path almost never traveled by a couple that is decidedly not religious but very spiritually oriented. It shows you a naked glimpse into their personal lives, their travels and their mystical journey with their trisomy 18 baby Quincy.

Embracing Quincy is full of stories of love, humor, psychic phenomena and mystical coincidences that will make even the most skeptical start to question their beliefs. This book will take you to far away lands as it weaves Quincy's story in and out of the Marsh's moves and travels and search for creating a sustainable farm on which to raise their family.

This book non-judgmentally explores issues such as "pro life" versus "pro choice" abortion decisions, karma and reincarnation, the possibility of effecting miracles through quantum physics and the law of attraction, and the power of prayer in large numbers.

Most of all, Embracing Quincy shows what a mother and father will do for the love of their unborn baby.

If you liked Eat, Pray, Love and Expecting Adam, you'll love Embracing Quincy.
