This Much I Know

Being a young child and living with a mom with breast cancer, I didn't know how to react. Everything was scary. I had so many questions, thoughts and ideas, but I didn't know how to ask them. So sadly, I held a lot inside. What I did have, were the memories of my special moments with my mom, something that could never be taken away from me. I've taken those lovely memories, of which I still cherish today, and put them into a children's book. This was a cathartic journey for me, and I hope it can also help other children who may feel like I did as a child.This children’s book is aimed at giving boys and girls the confidence to begin the talk about how mom is feeling during cancer treatment, how to help her and how to hold all the memories of daily life close at heart. It’s an inner dialogue many children face when they know mom has cancer, but don't know how to talk about it out loud. The friends you'll find in this story are eager to share their thoughts and questions with you. Hopefully you'll find the courage to share your concerns and thoughts with your mom while you reflect on your own special memories you have together.
