A "Must Read" For Anyone Who Has Lost a Child, May 18, 2002
This review is from: Quit Kissing My Ashes: A Mother's Journey Through Grief (Hardcover)
I would like to recommend this book, "Quit Kissing My Ashes" by Judy Collier. It is a "Must Read" for anyone who has lost a child. I lost my child in August of 2001. Reading this book convinced me that I was not going "crazy" receiving my "angel" signs from my little Christie. This book only proves that our loved ones are with us all the time, and our signs, no matter what we feel or believe, let us know that our children stay with us, even when they have "crossed over" to the other side. Judy Collier relates to her readers all her signs she and her family have received from her son, Kyle. Judy lets everyone know that there is life after death, and if a person truly believes and lets themselves feel, that these signs will just keep being received by those who have the faith that God's love is truly present at this sorrowful time. I, for one, know this is abosolutely true, even though I admit that my little angel tries to tell her mom to "Get a grip" as maybe I take "signs" a little too far. But, you know, if it makes me feel better, what the heck!!! When a loved one dies, especially your child, a person has to dig really deep and learn so much more. Thank you Judy for writing this much needed book, to let us all know we are not crazy!!! Most importantly, thanks for letting us all realize our children are okay. I believe all parents only want their children's happiness and peacefulness with no worries or pain. Now, I realize my angel and many others have this. So, I tell others, when you see us cry, it is not for Chrisite, but for us who, of course, miss her so deeply. But is she okay?? You bet, and I can't wait till our entire family will one day be together again. Read this amazing book and feel your own signs at your time of grief. With faith in God, and listening to your innermost feelings, you too will realize what Judy herself tries to convince others what she has truly felt and come to believe on her amazing journey--our kids live on and they are okay.

Fantastic, funny, comforting and uplifting book!!!!!!, February 10, 2002
This review is from: Quit Kissing My Ashes: A Mother's Journey Through Grief (Hardcover)
Undeniable affirmations that we do live on beyond our physical deaths. Everyone who has lost anyone should read this. It will teach you how to be aware of the communications of our loved ones and friends who have crossed over. Very funny, and very entertaining while teaching us lessons about life, death and life after death. Great job to author Judy Collier and her amazing son Kyle who I hope to meet one day too when I get there.
