In many ways, even though threats of the virus kept us physically apart, it brought us closer than ever. We endured a shared, universal experience of being far away from our friends and family and a time that upended every aspect of our lives. Knowing that we will be talking about this pandemic for generations, "Far Apart, Together at Heart" is a way to share with young children what life was like during that time. From children who were very young to the pandemic babies, it will help start the conversation and help them understand how we kept one another safe and how we went about our daily lives differently than before.

Book excerpt: In an unassuming apartment building in Brooklyn, New York, three lives intersect as the reality of war invades each aspect of their lives. Young Esther is heartbroken when her father decides to enlist in the army shortly after the death of her mother. Penny Goodrich has been in love with Eddie Shaffer for as long as she can remember; now that Eddie's wife is dead, Penny feels she has been given a second chance and offers to care for his children in the hope that he will finally notice her and marry her after the war. And elderly Mr. Mendel, the landlord, waits for the war to end to hear what has happened to his son trapped in war-torn Hungary. But during the long, endless wait for victory overseas, life on the home front will go from bad to worse. Yet these characters will find themselves growing and changing in ways they never expected--and ultimately discovering truths about God's love...even when He is silent.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The devastating words Congenital Heart Defect thrust parents of more than 36,000 children annually into a frightening, dark tunnel—dramatically changing the dynamics of each family. Because CHD, attacks unexpectedly, parents reel, bombarded with information regarding treatments, tests, and decisions—as parents echo, "I’ve never felt so alone. I can’t believe this is happening to us." From the initial diagnosis and throughout the daunting journey, the twelve chapters and resources in this guide weave advice, support, and hope from fellow travelers and medical professionals who come alongside through encouraging short stories, refreshing helpful hints, and inspiring scriptures and prayers. Many weary parents pull apart as communication breaks down during these devastating times—sometimes far apart. You-niquely Made is a section that helps family members appreciate different personalities and methods of coping. Overwhelmed families find comfort and courage as they read about the struggles parents face, balancing needs of their child and family (the set-aside spouses and the invisible ones—siblings) and self—the caregiver. Readers come to understand—the new normal of congenital heart disease. Heartfelt stories also include becoming your child’s advocate, reactions to stages of grief including unexpected waves and survivor’s guilt. This second book in the "You Are Not Alone" book series joins national award winning, Hope for Families of Children with Cancer, shining rays of light in the darkness.
