SIDS & infant death survival guide

Tremendously powerful and moving, this book has already sold more than 37,000 copies in English and Spanish in its former editions. This new 2011 fourth editon is revised and updated and has a new introduction by Dr. Henry Krous. It provides authoritative new medical research information on Sudden Infant Death Syndrome and infant death, and articles and poems by parents and family members who have lost babies to SIDS and other deaths such as suffocation. The most comprehensive book ever written on SIDS, its 19 chapers cover everything from the particular grief of mothers, fathers, siblings, grandparents, friends, and child-care providers to guilt, anger, dreams, premonitions, peer and professional support, emergency response, planning funerals, enduring anniversaries, having subsequent children, and reducing the risk of SIDS and infant death. The crucial issue of how child-care facilities can reduce their risk of being held liable for babies who die in their care is also covered.
