Book: Two Patients: My Conversion from Abortion to Life-Affirming Medicine Paperback – October 20, 2022 by Dr. John Bruchalski M.D. (Author)
After a terrible misjudgment in the delivery room, Dr. John Bruchalski realized that with every pregnant woman he attends, there are two patients—the mother and her unborn child. In addition to this discovery, two remarkable spiritual experiences deepened his understanding of the kind of man he had become and the one he was called to be.
Two Patients is the story of how a physician who practiced abortion came to question the medical status quo and to pioneer an approach to reproductive medicine that respects female fertility, honors the dignity of unborn children, and care to patients regardless of their financial situation. Such health care, writes Dr. John Bruchalski, is merciful medicine, and his memoir gives a glimpse of just how merciful the relationship between a doctor and his two patients—mother and child— can be.
Many people from outside our parish will be attending and we’d like for St. Brigid to host the dinner beforehand.
He shares how he went from being an OB/GYN who performed abortions to returning to his pro-life Catholic roots.
This event is presented by the Saint Brigid Walking with Moms in Need Ministry.
Guests and Parishioners: Please RSVP at this link. If you are NOT attending dinner, let us know in the comments section. The presentation will begin promptly at 7 p.m.
