Review of Miraculous Moments by Elissa Al-Chokhachy

Miraculous Moments ISBN 978-0-7387-2122-4 by Elissa Al-Chokhacy is a collection of stories she gathered during her work as a hospice nurse. In her role as a hospice nurse Elissa was often conffrounted with caregivers who desperately needed to know that their terminally ill loved one will live on. Elissa often told grieving individuals the story of an after death visit she received from her cousin, Stefan.

"Physical death," says Elissa, "does not have to mean the end of a loving relationship. Desceased loved ones", she assures us, "Can continue to send us love, just as we send love to them."

Miraculous Moments can't help but be comforting as story after story documents experiences that convince bereaved individuals and health care professionals that life coninutes after death. I found myself crying sometimes as I read this book, but I was tremendously reassured that life and love go on. I think this would be a great book to pass along to anyone you know who is grieving the loss of a love. The book is available at Amazon.
