A young mother awakens early one morning to find her tiny three-month-old premature daughter, Natalia, struggling to breathe and almost rigid. After a call to 911, Natalia is taken by ambulance with her mother to the ER. Almost immediately doctors have brain and bone scans ordered for Natalia. The results of those scans indicate that she is unlikely to live. Mother, father, and extended family are devastated. But the next statement by doctors is almost as unsettling, and even more shocking. They unequivocally diagnose her condition as "shaken baby" abuse. That horrific diagnosis initiates a family journey through the court system that would last for years in search of the truth. This book describes in detail that journey and its impact on the people involved.
