BREATH TAKING with Author Jessica Fein
Jessica "Jessie" Fein's book, BREATH TAKING: A MEMOIR OF FAMILY, DREAMS, AND BROKEN GENES, is being praised everywhere, as it should. My favorite, and most accurate synopsis, is: "A masterclass on how to be a person." — Joanna Rakoff, bestselling author of MY SALINGER YEAR. The hardest thing to experience is the loss of a child. Jessie shares her and her husband's fertility journey, adoption, and subsequent advocacy on behalf of one of their beautiful children, Dahlia, as Dahlia succumbs to MERRF syndrome (myoclonic epilepsy with ragged red fibers), a rare genetic disorder.
