Words can't describe how powerful this story is, and the fact that this really happened - and continues to happen to kids - makes it all that more gut-wrenching and poignant. It is, indeed, a love story, and one that continues to live on in the hearts of so many. Everyone should read this!

Very touching
God bless any parent that loses a child by any means. How painful to watch them go through so much and then lose them. Carter sounds like he was a very special little boy; a gift from God. It also gives us a glimpse into the St Jude world, one that sounds very loving and caring.
I didn't really care for the author's writing style although I understand that it is journal style. The prayers were repetitive and wordy (just this Christian's personal opinion). There were quite a few grammatical errors which I think is a disservice from the editors and proofreaders to the author; a former teacher. I wish there was more about the effect Carter's illness and death had on Paul and Mason.

A true love story
Thank you Sarah for sharing your journey with us! Carter truly does live on through your words! Though I never knew Carter in the physical world, I will keep his story going.

This was a heart wrenching story of a mother’s love and the care she gave her young son that had cancer.
