520    "At age twenty-eight, Mira Ptacin discovered she was 
       pregnant. Though it was unplanned, she soon embraced the 
       pregnancy and became engaged to Andrew, the father. Five 
       months later, an ultrasound revealed birth defects that 
       would give the child no chance of survival outside the 
       womb. Mira was given three options: terminate her 
       pregnancy, induce early delivery, or wait and inevitably 
       miscarry. Mira's story is woven together with the story of
       her mother, who emigrated from Poland (also at the age of 
       twenty-eight) and whose adopted son, Julian died 
       tragically. Poor Your Soul is a beautiful examination of 
       free will, love, and the fierce bonds of family"--
