Many of you already know the story of Rachel and Roger Reynolds and the agony they experienced with their beautiful daughter who suffered from cancer. Charlotte Jennie’s precious life was cut too short, but Rachel has turned her tragedy into a living memorial for her daughter by writing a book that reaches the hearts and minds of others dealing with similar situations.
Rachel has poured her heart into writing this book. Just one of the excerpts that Rachel has shared on her blog is included here:
“It was so difficult to look at my precious little girl and realize that while she laughed and tickled you, sang nursery rhymes, read books to herself, and talked about going to Houston, Texas in her adorable Southern drawl that there was this ugly, dangerous, cancerous tumor growing inside of her brain. That insidious thing that refused to be stopped by the traditional avenues was testing both modern science and my ability to remain optimistic.I struggled to breathe while I sat still in the eye of the big hurricane, anticipating the storm clouds that were building again. “
We can all celebrate baby Charlotte’s life by purchasing a copy of Rachel’s soon-to-be-released book “Four Seasons for Charlotte”, to support CJ’s Thumbs Up!.
