"Dear Barbara, Dear Lynne is a heartbreakingly tender story of the desire for parenthood and the deepening friendship between two women who have known each other only on paper." "Barbara Shulgold and Lynne Sipiora met through the mail when one of them responded to a desperate letter the other had written to Resolve, a newsletter for infertile couples. These two brave women, complete strangers, bound by their common struggle to have a baby, began a correspondence that fortified them through three years of infertility traumas and adoption struggles - relying on each other for the support and understanding only another woman could bring. At first tentative, later deeply loving, the letters are an astounding document of friendship and the journey to motherhood. Dear Barbara, Dear Lynne is a testimony to the human spirit, the power of shared travail, and the joy of finally holding one's face against the soft, sweet skin of a day-old infant."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
