«Dépossédée» is the autobiographical testimony of Henriette Chardak, published by Presses de la Renaissance in paperback (109 pages, in French).
Henriette, an active woman without children, is delighted to become pregnant after forty. A malaise takes her to Saint-Vincent-de-Paul Hospital, where she is mistaken for someone seeking an abortion and receives cruel treatment. Her miscarriage prevents her from becoming a mother; the scandal of fetuses found in 2005 drives her to write this testimony.
First published in France in 2006.
Recommended for readers interested in testimonies about women's health and in denouncing the dehumanization of healthcare.
