This book helped me to discover new strengths within by keeping my son Allen close and slowly letting the pain go. Intense! I relived many painful moments while reading this book. A powerful novel told from the grandmother¿s perspective. This is an incredible story about the Gino family and the loss of 3 month old Gregory to SIDS. The family bonds together as they heal and find strength to overcome their loss. There are many lessons to be learned in their healing process. Very well written and very true to life. Thank you.

As a mother, I wept as I read this story. As a mother that lost an infant son to SIDS the same as the daughter in this book, my heart was lifted and touched beyond words. I felt that I became a part of Carol and her family and I was there with the angel Janith. Tender and wonderfully written. I gained a new understanding for what my own mother must feel when dealing with me... for a grandmother the pain is two-fold.. losing a loved grand-child and seeing your own child broken, and hurt and unable to fix that. I have since read several of Carol's books... reading Nurses Story I learned more about Carol as a person and truel felt I was in touch with the author, who really touched my soul and my heart as she has surely touched many...
