BOOK GIVEAWAY: Chronic Kids, Constant Hope

First up: The winner of September’s Half the Sky book giveaway is…Tas! Congratulations!

This month I’m giving away a free paperback copy of Chronic Kids, Constant Hope: Help and Encouragement for Parents of Children with Chronic Conditions by Elizabeth Hoekstra and Mary Bradford. I read this book a few years ago after several different friends recommended it to me.

Amazon’s description of the book:

An estimated one-third of U.S. families have children with conditions ranging from asthma to cystic fibrosis—conditions that may not be imminently life-threatening, but are nevertheless life-altering for the entire family. Hoekstra and Bradford address specific issues such as dealing with emotions, what to do when friends say insensitive things, praying effectively, finding good medical care, and navigating the insurance maze. Through their honesty, the experiences of other parents, and your own chronic kid, you will discover how to recognize and absorb God's grace and hope as you live out His plan for your lives.”

If you’re a parent of a child with special needs or a chronic medical condition (or you have a friend who is) and you'd like to enter the drawing for this book, simply post a comment below by midnight, October 31. Your comment can be anything…just make sure I know who you are!
