Mommy, Please Don't Cry: There Are No Tears in Heaven
: This book, written from a Christian perspective, does an excellent job of helping parents who have just lost a young child see hope and find comfort. Wonderful illustrations, too.
It breaks my heart to realize that other people have gone thru what we've gone thru! If you're reading this, a piece of my broken heart goes out to you. This book was a gift from my best friend who felt so inadequate when we lost our son Christmas day 2001. It was several weeks before I was able to pick it up and read it. Of course, I cried thru the entire book but yet it eased my heart. My son is in a better place, and, while not a religious person, I found that extremely comforting. The book is scripture-based from a child's perspective. I've read it to my 5 year old more times than I can count. It's explained Caleb's death in a positive light (if there is such a thing). I still cry every time I read it, and yet I still want to read it, and cry with it, and be comforted by it. It's a short book, it's not a how-to-cope, it's simply a soothing book to help you look at the death of your child in a different perspective and know that someday you will be together again. I highly recommend this book for your broken heart.
I bought this book for the mother of my precious Makayla Zayne who touched our lives for a mere 33 hours. What an inspiration to know she lives on in heaven and that she is very happy there even when we miss her sooooo much. We look forward to the day we will be reunited with her. This book tells how happy our babies are in heaven and that we have nothing to worry about. Grandma loves you Makayla Zayne.
I bought this book after miscarrying in early 2002. I loved its simplicity of it written like a child would write it. It gives me hope that I will see my unborn child in Heaven one day and I get excited. I also hold on to this book because when someone says I am not a mother because I don't have other children, I go to this book and I know that I am, the child just lives in Heaven. That child will always be mine! If you are having difficulting dealing with a miscarriage or the loss of a child, know that your not alone and buy this book for peace that you may see your unborn child, or the child you lost, one sweet day.
I lost twin girls in September 1997, a friend gave e this book as a gift, I cherish it and read it when I am feeling low. I found that it has given me hope that my girls are safe in heaven.
