A catastrophic accident left her fighting for her life, forcing her unborn daughter, Abigail Grace, into a premature and fragile existence. Born in the midst of chaos, baby Abigail faced insurmountable odds-devastating injuries, countless surgeries, and an uncertain future.From her own hospital bed, battling pain from life-altering wounds, Layla began a journey of unimaginable strength. With faith in God as her anchor and love as her guide, she fought to heal herself while remaining by Abigail's side in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), determined to give her daughter every chance to survive.Saving Abigail Grace is a deeply moving memoir about resilience in the face of tremendous personal trauma. Layla's story unveils the power of hope and faith, the limitless depths of a mother's love, and the miracles that arise when you refuse to give up. Layla valiantly takes readers through each moment of her compelling story of healing and restoration-a path etched with hardship and resilience, but also marked by strength and triumph!
