Book
Replacement child / by Judy Mandel.
Tells the true story of a horrifying accident: A plane crashes into a family's home, leaving one daughter severely burned and another dead. The death of the child leaves a hole in the family that threatens to tear it apart. In an attempt to fill the painful gap, the parents give birth to a "replacement child." In this powerful story of love and lies, family and hope, Judy L. Mandel tells the story of being the child brought into the world to provide "a salve for the burns." As a child, she unwittingly rides the deep and hidden currents of her family's grief--until her discovery of this family secret, years later, changes her life forever, forcing her to confront the complex layers of her relationships with her father, mother, and sister.
