The Promise of Stardust (Large Print)

Matt was two years old the first time he held Elle in his arms, seventeen when he first kissed her, and thirty-three when they wed. Now the deeply devoted couple has everything—except the baby they've always wanted.

When a tragic accident leaves Elle brain-dead, Matt is devastated. Though he cannot bear losing her, he knows his wife feared only one thing—a slow death. Just before Matt agrees to remove Elle from life support, the doctors discover that she is pregnant. Now what was once a clear-cut decision becomes an impossible choice. While there is no certainty her body can sustain the pregnancy, Matt is sure Elle would want the baby to have a chance. Linney, Matt's mother, believes her son is blind with denial and insists Elle would never want to be kept alive by artificial means, no matter what. And the result is a battle, which ultimately goes beyond one family and one single life.
