When Maria Gallant's baby daughter Gail died after a car crash, Maria prayed for God to give back her child. Within a year she had another daughter- she also called her Gail. Maria brought her up to believe that she was her sister reborn. Gail describes the impact this had on her throughout her life. She has written a book about her experiences called The Changeling.
