That is why a book like Joy, Interrupted is so needed. It is through reading the insights of real people sharing real experiences, that we begin to allow the process of self-healing. As we begin that process we might just discover how to assist others to do the same. Whether you've lost a child through death, adoption or some other means, you need to read this book...and then share it with a friend." by Kevin Jenkins, Staff writer, Daily Journal -- from the back cover.
