But Nathaniel's severe Treacher Collins syndrome--a craniofacial condition--meant that other concerns came first. Could he eat without the aid of a gastrointestinal tube? Could he hear? Would he ever be able to breathe effortlessly? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e In this moving memoir, Newman, with the help of her son, tells the story of raising Nathaniel, from the shock she and her husband faced when he was born, to the inspiration of Nathaniel's own strength and quirky humor. All this while also facing both non-Hodgkins and Hodgkins lymphoma diagnoses of her own. This uplifting story of a family tackling complex and terrifying circumstances with love and resilience is a true testament to Magda and her family, and to families everywhere who quietly but courageously persist.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Magdalena Newman, Hilary Liftin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1328593126\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781328593122\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Harvest Publications\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/14\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.80w x 1.10d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/11\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eShelf Awareness\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/04\/2020","brand":"Magdalena Newman","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43948001755391,"sku":"9781328593122","price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_f95ce15f-7196-448c-8b9a-67ad3e6e4606.jpg?v=1681522043","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/normal-magdalena-newman-9781328593122","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
