About this listen
A new memoir from Sunday Times and New York Times bestselling author Cathy Glass.
When Cathy receives a call about a terminally ill widower terrified of leaving his son all alone in the world, she is wracked with sadness and indecision. Can she risk exposing her own young children to a little boy on the brink of bereavement?
Eight year old Michael is part of a family of two, but with his beloved father given only months to live and his mother having died when he was a toddler, he could soon become an orphan. Will Cathy’s own young family be able to handle a child in mourning? To Cathy’s surprise, her children insist that this boy deserves to be as happy as they are, prompting Cathy to welcome Michael into her home.
A cheerful and carefree new member of the family, Michael devotedly prays every night, believing that when the time is right, angels will come and take his Daddy to be with his Mummy in heaven. However, incredibly, in the weeks that pass, the bond between Cathy’s family, Michael and his kind and loving father Patrick grows. Even more promising, Patrick is looking healthier than he’s done in weeks.
But just as they are settling into a routine of blissful normality, an unexpected and disastrous event shatters the happy group, shaking Cathy to the core. Cathy can only hope that her family and Michael’s admirable faith will keep him strong enough to rebuild his life.

Get the tissues ready.
This is such a wonderfully written, heart wrenching story that filled me with so much emotion. Happiness and sadness. Joy and sorrow. I will definitely be listening to this one again. More prepared next time for an emotional roller coaster!

I knew this story would be upsetting but geez 2 - 3 & 4oclock in the morning in tears, all the characters you've added are just perfect with all of your books, im on now your book "a babys cry" and I can see already its going to be a very emotional book, I'd like to take this opportunity to say Thankyou Cathy I feel as though I know you with having most of your books, dont change a thing is all I say,
take care stay safe, Cathy and Denica
