Bøger af Margaret (University of Sheffield) Freeman

Reverend Margaret Anne Freeman was born in 1927 with a serious and complicated heart defect, Fallot's Tetralogy. She was not expected to live very long at all, let alone walk or have children. She defied expectations, and today works as a 76 year old retired priest in Norfolk.This autobiography tells how she gained and kept her Christian faith during war and countless personal tragedies, whilst breaking records as she went. She became the first adult to survive open-heart surgery, and the first such survivor to have children. It also tells of the enormous struggle she had over the Ordination of women in the Church of England. This is an enthralling story that will grip the reader with every turn of the page.
