That's basically morning sickness so severe that it leads to dehydration and malnourishment and sometimes death. It's essentially what Kate, Duchess of Windsor, had when she was hospitalized during her pregnancy with Prince George. I was wondering if the novel included that?Stacey @ The Anonymous Blondehttp://theanonymousblonde.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8642167378367548721.post-83370134501975142692013-08-16T08:26:37.210-07:002013-08-16T08:26:37.210-07:00Reading her biography in novel form was easier to ...Reading her biography in novel form was easier to read and a lot more emotional.

It must have really been fascinating to learn about the author... and even more to be " immersed into the lives of (her) family". This type of reading experience is unique!

From the design to the posts. :) Hats off to you for supporting the ministry 'Compassion'. Very honorable. Sincere blessings to you!!
