The Journey
Last week an old family friend's daughter called with the bad news that her mother had a heart attack and died suddenly. This is following her father dying of a long illness 2 months ago. The first thing that came to mind was sending her your books. She messaged me today to express her gratitude. I remember how much reading GONE FROM MY SIGHT helped me heal after my Daddy passed away. Thank you so much love your work:)

Great set of Booklets
The resources in these booklets are a game changer. I learned so much and was able to share the information I learned with my siblings. So much goes through a person's head when a close family member is on hospice. These booklets answered alot of the questions we all had. Thank you, thank you for the invaluable information these booklets contain.
