    “Book Descriptions: Chronic pain, illness, and disability take so much away. Sometimes it seems as though they take everything we have ever loved and held dear.

    Our physical abilities and our jobs. Our current passions and future dreams. Our finances and our friends. Our sense of community and our ability to engage the world in ways we could before.

    Chronic pain takes away our sense of self and who we always thought ourselves to be. How in the world are we supposed to deal with this fact?

    In this book, I hope to teach you how to mourn your losses – everything that pain, illness, and disability has taken away. I hope to teach you what to do when life is empty and filled with grief. I hope to point you to the God who gives us Himself when nothing else in life makes sense.”
