Product description

As her younger brother battled for life in the ICU, Candi Pearson-Shelton and her family sat waiting and praying, clinging to hope. Rick Pearson died anyway, at age 23. But in those tense ICU days and the painful months that followed, the family discovered a kind of mission: to see God's glory shining through the sorrow of their own broken desires. With fierce honesty and open-eyed faith, Candi chronicles their journey to a new, breathtaking place of hope.
"I write these thoughts out of necessity," the author reflects. "There is value in recording the gentle whispers and hard-learned faith lessons that make up the aftermath, springing up like tender shoots of vivid green grass through the contrasting blackened dry soot. These are my blades of grass, the lessons in the aftermath, told with the heart of an adventurer fresh from the adventure, brimming with tales of terror and scars, of beauty and redemption."
