Grief Grit Glory (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781636988993)

A Mother's Extraordinary Journey From Heartbreak to HopePam was twenty-four, pregnant with her third child, and holding fast to a life built on faith, love, and promise--until everything changed with the birth of her son Jonny. Diagnosed at birth with CMV (Cytomegalic Virus) causing him multiple profound disabilities, Jonny's arrival shattered expectations and sparked a soul-deep reckoning: What does it mean to be a loving mother when caretaking takes her on an unknown path?In the golden light of her hometown in Napa Valley, where family and traditions run deep, Pam begins a journey that stretches far beyond the familiar and leads her on a trailblazing path that no one before her had sojourned. As caregiving strains her family and systems fail them, she carves a new model to parent Jonny--one that refuses to sideline parents or diminish the sacred role of family. She becomes an unlikely advocate, reshaping policy and possibility for children like Jonny, and for the invisible families who fight to stay whole.Told with unwavering honesty, Grief Grit Glory is more than a memoir. It's a testimony of fierce love and spiritual resolve--a story for anyone who's ever had to hold on while letting go. For those who believe families are irreplaceable, this inspiration story is a rallying cry, a blueprint, and a source of enduring strength.
