a heartwrenching story of a mother's love

What an amazing story about love, strength and determination. Grace, a widow with a 12 year old, discovers she is dying, and needs to find a family who will love her daughter. I kept stopping while reading to check on my sleeping daughter, or just hug her. Any mom should read this...a reminder to count our blassings.

There's no love like a mother's love!

As a mother, I read this book with a clenched heart! The outpouring of love from a mother to child is overwhelming in the best of circumstances. Grace had strength that could have only been God-given! A 'must' read for all who have ever loved a child.

Amazing novel that you'll carry with you for ages....

I read this book and was just amazed at how in put you in touch with what a person dying of AIDS is going through. Denker is an amazing author and really tore at your heart with this book. My mother read it, reccomended it to me, and by the time I was done, I was hugging her and thanking God she wasn't dying like Grace Cameron, because Kathy had to be suffering at knowing she would lose the person most important to her.
