A Mother's Smile Kristopher James

When his mother was diagnosed with metastatic pancreatic cancer, author, speaker, and producer Kristopher James looked for a book to help support him through the turbulent emotional times waiting for him ahead.

When he was unable to find such a book, Kristopher knew he had to write it himself. So, after his mother succumbed to the terrible disease thirteen months later, Kristopher used the extensive journals he'd kept during her struggle and after her death to help others going through the same overwhelming grief and helplessness.

Culled from his meticulously kept chronicles, A Mother's Smile provides an honest look at the devastation cancer wreaks on individuals and their loved ones-and provides comfort and solidarity amidst the pain and sadness. Kristopher draws on his own experiences with his mother to provide helpful, universal guidance for the practicalities of dealing with a cancer diagnosis and aftermath. He assures readers they are not alone-that though the world seems like it is ending, they can find the strength to keep moving forward through the heartache to a place of hope and peace.
