Cradled All The While

This book is a beautifully crafted memoir in which the author recounts the story of her mother’s death from cancer. In the midst of a career and child-rearing, Corse becomes her mother’s primary caregiver, but her story is a spiritual journey that will nurture the faith of people of many religious backgrounds. The themes encountered throughout this book parallel the issues dealt with in practical grieving resources. Here, however, they are played out in the lives of a real family.
