2017 ECPA Christian Book Award Finalist (Biography and Memoir category)What happens afterthe worst happens?Before May 31, 2008, September Vaudrey's life was beautiful. But on that day, with one phone call from the ER, her whole world--everything she knew and believed--was shaken to the core. Katie, her 19-year-old artist daughter, had been in a car accident and would not survive. How does a family live in the wake of devastating tragedy? When darkness colors every moment, is it possible to find light? Can God still be good, even after goodbye?With the depth of C. S. Lewis's A Grief Observedand the poignancy of Joan Didion's The Year of Magical Thinking, Colors of Goodbyeoffers a moving glimpse into a mother's heart. Combining literary narrative and raw reflection, September Vaudrey walks through one of life's worst losses--the death of a child--and slowly becomes open to watching for the unexpected ways God carries her through it. It's a story of love and tragedy in tandem; a deeply personal memoir from a life forever changed by one empty place. And at its core, Colors of Goodbyecalls to the deepest part of our spirits to know that death is not the end . . .and that life can be beautiful still. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |

Katie Vaudrey was a vibrant young woman who had just finished her freshman year at college. She was beginning her first day of her new job . She was outgoing, and loved to tell others about her love for God. One day a tragedy happened that forever changed the Vaudreys' family forever. The pain, grief, anger and depression quickly set in. Thank you September Vaudrey for sharing your story about the loss of your daughter. Your words will someday help another family as they grieve the loss of their child. Katie was taken too soon and no parent is ever ready for that. As I read the book, I felt the tears roll down my face. The unbearable pain I felt for this family was overwhelming. They say time heals all wounds, but sometimes those wounds are too deep . I am thankful I had an opportunity to read this book and be challenged to remember everyday is precious.
