Above the Fog: A Life Journey with DES

Above the Fog is a powerful story of one woman's struggles with DES (diethylstilbestrol). The drug was developed in 1937 as the first synthetic estrogen and given to millions of pregnant women who had previously had miscarriages. Years later the tragic results started showing up in the daughters and sons but the FDA did not ban this until 1971 to all pregnant women. This story is about a woman who never gave up in the face of her repeated health issues from DES or her family's extraordinary health problems. She was determined to face the hard times with dignity and grace.
