Laugh, Love and Live

I read Shirley Enebrad's Over the Rainbow Bridge with trepidation, expecting her story to be depressing; instead, I did indeed laugh and cry. She and her son, Cory, are an inspiration to live, love and laugh, and to hold our loved ones close and never be afraid to say I love you.

A read to last Forevermore

Wow- I bought this book in the a.m. and was done by evening. What a privilege to have S. Enenbrad share her innermost thoughts on this journey. It showed how to live with joy and courage amidst the devastating illness of her son. The way she dealth with the medical community was straightforward and an inspiration. Felt like I wanted to be the author's friend by the end. This book should help us all be more open and vulnerable in our treasured relationships.

Emotional Read

Ms. Enebrad did an amazing job articulating the specialness of her child and their heartbreaking jounrney to "Summerland". This book emotionally drained me, I laughed, I cried and I sobbed. When I finished this book it made me reflect on those I have loved and lost in my own life and how I talk to others about death, dying and my views on the afterlife. She offers sound advice advice and shares valuable wisdom, I only hope her daughter Brie decides to write about her experience as the young sibling of a terminal child. Thank You Ms. Enebrad for sharing your amazing little guy with all of us and for offering such a personal emotional glimpse into his short life. I look forward to more works by this author.

Awesome!

This is a very quick read, indeed! And, what an awesome thing to be sharing such an amazing teacher with more of us than the smaller circle of Cory's everyday lifings. Thank you Ms. Enebrad for gifting us all this story of love and wisdom. I loved Cory's spirit and truthfulness, and how he shared it with everyone. Beyond anyone who is having to deal with the death of a loved one (specifically a child), or someone trying to help someone else deal, I'd suggest every medical school have this as required reading. I especially appreciated Shirley's helpful tips on how NOT to treat others in loss... there's nothing worse than someone telling us to just get over it however "gently" they think they're doing it!

Over the Rainbow Bridge

Life Changing -August 1, 2009 Although, I am a slow reader- and it can take me months to finish a book that interests me. I picked this book up on a Sunday evening and was finished at 9 pm Monday night. I could not get enough of the book. "Over the Rainbow Bridge" has validated all my beliefs about our purpose here on earth, about past lives and about the other side. What little reading I have done about these subjects have always left me with some doubt. Knowing the author as a friend, has made these topics all so real. It's one of those books you will want to have extra copies to give to anyone going through hard times, practically death or impending death of a loved one. I believe this book will give you a greater understanding of your purpose- we are all are here to LEARN- to be better people. Life Changing
