Publisher's Synopsis
May 5, 1986 was the last time I looked into my mother's deep brown eyes and embraced her before she left for the hospital and didn't return.
I haven't given my mother a hug since that day.
But there is something that is almost as good:
It is feeling her influence.
And I feel it right now, as I am typing this.
And even though I haven't given my mom a hug in 36 years, there have been a few times--when I least expect it but need it most--that I can still feel her embrace. Because of Jesus Christ, this life is merely the cover page of the best book ever written - which goes on forever and ever and is filled with more adventure and love than we can possibly imagine.
Death is just the page turning, a reminder that the Real story is about to begin. If you are still and listen -- you just might feel it.
