Author Vicki Leland was a nurse in a busy Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) in 2006--a particularly tough year--when she met five families whose babies had died in the NICU. They touched her life in unexpected and inspiring ways, and they became "angels" to--souls who appear in our lives at times of crisis and walk alongside us as we journey through grief.
In A Gathering of Angels, Leland has collected writings from these five women on different aspects of grief. The result is a heartfelt book that shows how real people respond to grief. The women share their intensely personal stories, creating an incredibly universal book that will speak to readers from all walks of life who have lost a baby. Reflections include: Feeling Robbed, Guilt, Grieving Mothers vs. Grieving Fathers, My Faith Has Been Tested, Peace...and the Sundial.
