Publisher's Note
Heather Davis and her husband are blessed. They have a strong and loving marriage, a terrific four-year-old son, and a gorgeous new baby daughter named Remy. But one day, without warning, something goes terribly wrong. Remy has a seizure and is rushed to the emergency room. From the moment they arrive at Santa Monica Hospital, life as Heather knows it will never be the same.This is the remarkable story of how one young mother found the courage to face the terrifying ordeal of her baby girl with grace and an initially reluctant awareness that power greater than herself would see her through. Its a lesson about what happens to us when we open ourselves to the very real healing powers of faith and prayer.Baptism By Fire is Heather Davis's story of finding a renewed sense of the beauty and meaning of life during an undeniably dark hour.
Heather Davis and her husband, Lon, are blessed. They have a strong and loving marriage, a terrific four-year-old son, and a gorgeous new baby daughter named Remy. But one day, without warning, something goes terribly wrong. Remy has a seizure and is rushed to the emergency room. From the moment they arrive at Santa Monica Hospital, life as Heather knows it will never be the same. It will be better. During the agonizing wait for her daughter's future to reveal itself, Heather Davis learns a number of powerful lessons. She comes to know the insight, grace, and compassion that strangers can offer - from a silver-haired matron to a tattooed janitor. She discovers the depths of strength and courage within herself, her husband, and her son. And, most important, she learns what happens within us when we surrender and open ourselves to hope - and the very real and benevolent effects of faith and prayer.

Industry reviews
In addition to explaining how she acquired religious faith during her baby daughter's brain surgery, the author, who lives in Southern California, also details the trials of parents coping with a seriously ill child. After their seven-month-old daughter, Remy, had a seizure that initially left her unresponsive, the author and her husband, Lon, endured weeks of uncertainty as to the cause of Remy's spasms. They watched their baby undergo painful tests, and the author had to learn to administer her daughter's IVs at home. When Remy was successfully operated on for a benign brain tumor, Davis requested that her family and friends pray in thanksgiving. She describes how joining a Lutheran Church with a supportive minister during her ordeal helped restore her belief in God. Her account will be of great interest to parents who have had equally traumatic experiences. (Feb.)
