Proof of Heaven
Description
A mother's faith, a child's courage, a doctor's dedication-a moving and thought-provoking tale of hope, love, and family
He might be young, but Colm already recognizes the truth: that he's sick and not getting better. His mother, Cathleen, fiercely believes her faith will protect her ailing son, but Colm is not so sure. With a wisdom far beyond his years, Colm has come to terms with his probable fate, but he does have one special wish. He wants to meet his father who abandoned his beloved mother before Colm was born.
But the quest to find the dying boy's missing parent soon becomes a powerful journey of emotional discovery-a test of belief and an anxious search for proof of heaven.
A magnificent debut novel, Mary Curran Hackett's Proof of Heaven is a beautiful and unforgettable exploration of the power of love and the monumental questions of life, death, and the afterlife.
