PRAISE & ENDORSEMENTS
“This book speaks many volumes within its first and last page, as it covers the entire range of human emotions that come from the deepest kind of loss, the loss of a child. No one can begin to understand this experience unless they have lived sit, felt it and dealt with the pain, the sorrow, and ultimately the decision to go on with life, delicate, powerful and forever changed. These stories will touch you in the very deepest of places, in your heart… your spirit…your souls. Those very special places that make us all uniquely human and connect us all as one family. I highly recommend this book…open the pages and allow these beautiful and touching stories to stir you like nothing else can.”

“This book will touch many hearts and souls. Often, we, as a society do not speak of our losses in life for many reasons. But these parents of loss have chosen to share their losses an give us a new perspective and an honest ‘view’ into a heart wrenching experience that often many never speak of for many reasons. This is the perfect gift to share this book with those in our life circle who know this experience. I thank you, all of you who have shared in this book your heart and soul experience. Peace, Love, and Courage be yours as you unselfishly continue to share through these pages.”

I“I cannot imagine how the loss of one’s child must feel, much less how I would cope and move on. And yet, it appears that when one loses a child it elicits the greatest feeling and expression of love imaginable, even in the midst of such. How can two such profound feelings exist simultaneously? These stories are not intended to create sadness or sorrow, but to uplift and inspire. They bring us together as parents and humanity through the joy and love of these precious Souls whose physical lives were cut short. They serve as the vehicle through which we can experience and express our humanness and compassion. Your heart will be tugged in many directions, and yet, you will experience an immense sense of gratitude for the willingness of these courageous parents to share their child’s story.”
