In Down-to-Earth Angels you won’t read about super heroes flying to and fro; what you will discover is a fascinating collection of stories about many kinds of heroes and heroines from different walks of life, each reaching out to touch other’s lives in such a way that would inspire even the most hard-hearted curmudgeon. Best of all, you will share in the blessings these “earth angels” have been able to give to their worlds, leaving them a little better than they found them. The French poet Alphonse de Lamartine wrote: “To love for the sake of being loved is human, but to love for the sake of loving is angelic.” Every book has a story. This one is unique in that its pages dance from one story to another with colorful, entertaining, remarkable stories about true-life “earth angels” who touch ordinary people in extraordinary ways, with each story glorifying God. I guarantee you a good read!

Each of the authors brings a unique perspective, one being the parent of an infant who died of SIDS long before it was defined and who has brought understanding and comfort to untold thousands of other families so stricken. The others are proven investigators in the field. It is clear from their analyses that SIDS parents experience premonitions of doom nearly ten times more often than parents whose babies do not die. Clearly this is a signal for continued intensive study of the phenomenon.

The cause of the number-one killer of apparently healthy infants between the ages of one week and one year—Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS)—continues to defy science. This cruel mystery intensifies an already painful experience for bereaved parents, who frequently blame themselves for their baby’s death. This book explores how parents grieve, the meanings and casual explanations they attribute to a SIDS death, the effects of their grief on family relationships, and the strategies they use to cope and carry on. Karen Martin’s grounded theory study describes in detail the experiences of mothers and fathers whose babies died of SIDS ranging from less than one to over twenty-five years after the baby’s death. Her work makes an important contribution to health fields and to the social science of medicine, and is a critical resource for family doctors, public health nurses, counsellors, ministers, and all those working with grieving parents.

'...finding my baby that day shattered my life ...nothing would ever, ever be the same way again...' This insightful guide is based on real life accounts from mothers who have experienced Sudden Infant Death Syndrome. Focusing on grief, motherhood and maternal identity, the book is an intriguing read - often upsetting, yet desperately compelling. The stories and poignant memories bring the subject to life. Health and social care professionals will find a wealth of emotional and practical insights to improve professional practice, as will psychiatrists, psychologists, counsellors and therapists. 'This book has been written primarily to enable others to reflect on some of the stories which circulate around SIDS. They are not always easy stories to write or easy stories to read - but they are stories that need to be told and heard so that we can increase understanding of SIDS.' - Dawne J Gurbutt, in the Preface.

SIDS (sudden infant death syndrome also known as "crib death") is the leading cause of death in infants between one month and one year of age. Most SIDS deaths occur when a baby is between one and four months of age. This book is more than just a sharing of a personal testimony of one woman's tragedy, it is created to bring healing to those who have suffered the same loss and better equip those who may have to counsel and comfort a loved one, friend, or neighbor through such a tragedy as SIDS.

This volume covers aspects of sudden infant and early childhood death, ranging from issues with parental grief, to the most recent theories of brainstem neurotransmitters. It also deals with the changes that have occurred over time with the definitions of SIDS (sudden infant death syndrome), SUDI (sudden unexpected death in infancy) and SUDIC (sudden unexpected death in childhood). The text will be indispensable for SIDS researchers, SIDS organisations, paediatric pathologists, forensic pathologists, paediatricians and families, in addition to residents in training programs that involve paediatrics. It will also be of use to other physicians, lawyers and law enforcement officials who deal with these cases, and should be a useful addition to all medical examiner/forensic, paediatric and pathology departments, hospital and university libraries on a global scale. Given the marked changes that have occurred in the epidemiology and understanding of SIDS and sudden death in the very young over the past decade, a text such as this is very timely and is also urgently needed.
