The Infertility Companion for Catholics: Spiritual and Practical Support for Couples, by Carmen Santamaria and Angelique Ruhi-Lopez (paperback)

One in every six United States couples experiences infertility but Catholic couples face additional confusion, worry, and frustration as they explore the medical options available to them. Filling a major void in Catholic resources, The Infertility Companion for Catholics is the first book to address not only the medical, emotional, and spiritual dimensions of infertility, but also the particular needs of Catholic couples who desire to understand and follow Church teaching on the use of assisted reproductive technology. The authors do a fantastic job of describing the options for Catholic couples to pursue when seeking to conceive, many of which are not ordinarily presented by the medical community. In an encouraging and non-judgmental tone, they address both husbands and wives and help them to recognize the emotional impact of infertility on their relationship.If you are trying to purchase this item and it shows as "out of stock", please call the store during business hours (512-382-1728) to double check - we are constantly re-stocking items and it simply may not have updated to the web.
