Cradled All the While: The Unexpected Gifts of a Mother's Death

Cradled All the While: The Unexpected Gifts of a Mother's Death

by SaraJCorse (Author)

Synopsis

Cradled All the While is a beautifully crafted memoir in which the author recounts the story of her mother's death from cancer. In the midst of 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 the book parallel the issues dealt with in practical grieving resources; here, however, they are played out in the lives of a real family.

Media Reviews
I recently read Dr. Sara Corse's manuscript Cradled all the While. I recommend strongly the publishing of this valuable personal history on Sara's relationship with her mother through life and the dying process. The book is well written, and psychologically very sophisticated. It is hard to put down. Sara's description of complex relationships, her needs, and the acceptance of needs unmet, are stories to which thousands of people will related. The working through of the emotions, desires, and wishes will be points of identification and direction for many readers. -- Stephen R. Treat DMin, LMFT Director and CEO
