I, Who Have Left You: A Lover’s Memoir

<p>In a cloth-covered box, the physical treasures of Susan Freeman's life quietly stand as a monument to love. The box contains letters she and her husband, Leslie, wrote to one another over a span of twenty-seven years. The first one, dated 1975, was written by Susan during her days working on a farm in North Dakota. The last one, dated April 12, 2002, was written by Leslie on the day he committed an act of self-deliverance to escape the final ravages of cancer. But their story doesn't end with his physical death. Six months after he passed away, Susan received a channeled message that began "I, who have left you" . . . They have a spiritual connection that allows them to communicate between dimensions. Susan's memoir shares their story, their letters, and messages from the other side. Susan Freeman has written a memoir that speaks to the deepest longing in every heart-to know that love cannot and never does die. The promise her husband, Leslie, made to her before his passing has come true. He promised he would never leave her. He has communicated to her from "the outer realm" through a clairaudient who could never know the details of their twenty-seven year odyssey. In long, lyrical letters over a nine-year period, Leslie revisits details of their exotic travels in Arabia, refers to gifts he gave her, and constantly reassures her of his presence and his love of her through lifetimes. "There are only three things you need fear", he tells her. "Not being able to love, closing yourself off, and holding on too tightly to the past". This book is a rare and inspiring gift of spirit. -Gail Carr Feldman PhD, author, Midlife Crash Course: The Journey From Crisis To Full Creative Power</p>

To Dwell in Your House

To Dwell in Your House: Vignettes and Spiritual Reflections on Caregiving at Home addresses the large population in need of more resources for the sacred work of caregiving. With current trends in healthcare, the objective is to keep patients out of hospitals, and to provide care at home. And yet, there are so few resources for caregivers in the home. Going beyond clinical pointers for caregiving, this book offers encouragement and inspiration, with thirty original and compelling vignettes. While these stories arise out of a professional chaplain's actual spiritual care visits, the insights and wisdom are relevant to anyone who faces the struggles and joys of being in a caregiving relationship. Additionally, the book provides contemplations to guide caregivers in their own personal growth, reflections to share with those patients who would benefit from spiritual reassurance, and theory upon which caregivers can build a solid foundation to support their efforts into the future. While caregiving can be a lonely business, through this book, caregivers will attain a sense of camaraderie with other caregivers. Besides giving practical strategies for interacting meaningfully and effectively with patients and their families, this book affirms the gift of caregiving, and also understands the challenges associated with it.
