Acerca de esta escucha
On an ordinary September day, 12-year-old Jack is swept away in a freak neighborhood flood. His parents and younger sister are left to wrestle with the awful questions: How could God let this happen? Can we ever be happy again? They each fall into the abyss of grief in different ways. And in the days and months to come, they each find their faltering way toward peace. In Rare Bird, Anna Whiston-Donaldson unfolds a mother's story of loss that leads, in time, to enduring hope. With this unforgettable account of a family's love and longing, Anna will draw you deeper into a divine goodness that keeps us - beyond all earthly circumstances - safe.

But the true surprise is her path to recovery. Tiffany breaks through the stigma and silence to offer hope and inspiration to anyone battling the disease - whether it’s a loved one or themselves.

Historia
When Colin Campbell’s two teenage children were killed by a drunk driver, Campbell was thrown headlong into a grief so deep he felt he might lose his mind. He found much of the common wisdom about coping with loss—including the ideas that grieving is a private and mysterious process and that the pain is so great that “there are no words”—to be unhelpful. Drawing on what he learned from his own journey, Campbell offers an alternative path for processing pain that is active and vocal and truly honors loved ones lost.

Historia
God's love, plans, and promises for you are forever unfolding. I get it, Momma. I totally get it. Every day you wake up and try your very best. You love, give, and pour out your life for the ones who call you Momma. But no matter how much you offer, there are still days you feel as though you come up short. You worry, "Am I loving these babies enough? Is this ever going to get easier? Why does it seem like I am the only one who cannot balance it all?" Sometimes we just need hope (and maybe a long, uninterrupted nap).

beautiful, absolutely beautiful
I'm sure my short review will not give this book justice, it was honest, eloquent and heart-wrenching. A window into family life full of love and loss. I literally cried while listening to it at the grocery store! But, despite the sadness it was not draining to listen to.. it leaves you with a sense of peace

Warning! Tears
This is a courageously honest account of a woman's struggles with the grief of her loss and her anger with God at allowing it to happen. Written based on her blogs over the first years of her loss, it is a frank chronicle of the initial wish to give up thru to a new time of thriving. She shared insights in being kind to one's grieving self and what she and her family did to help each other.
