Simple Abundance Press Publishes When Every Day Matters: A Mother’s Memoir on Love, Loss and Life
About the Book
There are moments in life from which we think we will never recover: the death of a loved one, a devastating diagnosis, a divorce, the loss of our dreams, a catastrophic loss of our home or our livelihood. Then there is a moment in life when we don’t care if we recover: when our child is taken from this world by accident, natural disaster, illness, violence, a drunk driver, suicide or war. On that day it is only by the Grace of God that your warm feet hit the cold floor of reality.
In her powerful and intimate memoir, When Every Day Matters: A Mother’s Memoir on Love, Loss and Life, MJ Hurley Brant writes to her beautiful daughter Katie, a formidable, courageous and wise young woman who for 10 years lived with a brain tumor. And while she left her earthly life at 28 years of age, Katie Brant accomplished a hundred lifetimes of good.
In this transforming and deeply spiritual book, MJ, a psychotherapist for 33 years, speaks candidly about the family issues that surround these difficult times. She also speaks lovingly to her beloved Katie about the authenticity it takes to live our own life and not someone else’s idea of what our life should be. MJ takes the reader by the hand into her personal journey as a companion. She brings home the definition of making choices to make our life meaningful.
We all know that after a devastating loss the journey to recovery is a lonely one, but you don’t have to take it alone. Let MJ lead you out of the darkness of life’s most bewildering experiences and into the light of day. Let her words, reflections and guidance of When Every Day Matters surround your heart, soul, body and mind. Let someone who understands that you cannot “get over it” until you “go through it” be your guide to the other side of life.
