Book excerpt: Tragedy to Triumph-The Story of Tom's Heart provides an up-close and personal look at the journeys of two individuals facing death as they present their individual perspectives as the donor family and the recipient. There are very few stories in life that grip you like the loss of a child. When that story hits home, it can feel like your very heart is being ripped out. This story is about life and death. When a family member or friend suffers end-stage organ failure, the pain is different but very real. Loved ones watch as you wither away before their eyes dying, waiting, and hoping for the ultimate gift, the gift of life, so they can go on living. Tragedy to Triumph-The Story of Tom's Heart is the harrowing and heart-wrenching tragedy that struck him and his family. At the worst moment any family should ever have to deal with, the parents said 'yes' to organ, eye, and tissue donation so the lives of others could be saved and enhanced. For Tom's mother, it offered hope in the midst of despair, a purpose in the midst of tragedy, and light in the midst of the darkest night of her life. By saying yes to donation, another mother and family did not have to wonder, wait, or face the death of their son, brother, or friend.

Download or read book Healing 101 written by Jeremiah Klaas and published by . This book was released on 2020-09-24 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All of us have experienced times of desperation and pain. We have needed healing in our bodies. We've begged God for relief from soul wounds. We've cried out to Him to rescue us from an illness or a painful injury. We've shed tears as we prayed on behalf of a loved one or a friend. How do we access the healing that seems to come so easily for Jesus on the pages of the Bible? Are we doing something wrong when we don't see the healing manifest? Does God hear our prayers for help? Are we suffering because He is trying to teach us something? Receiving healing from God is not a "12-step process". There's not a list of things you have to do in order to earn the right to be healed. However, there are things you do need to learn about in order to make the process easier or quicker. I discuss those things in this book.
