There is no greater loss for a mother than to lose a child, especially an only child. Based on true events, this compelling story by Drake Gaetano chronicles a grieving mother who never allows fear and hopelessness to cast a shadow of doubt over her belief in miracles, the power and sanctity of God, and an inevitability of life which is inviolate. When her son is diagnosed with a rare form of lung cancer, Elaine is determined to cherish the treasured remaining time they have together. But those years are filled with anxiety and trepidation as she watches his life slowly ebb away. During the last three months she spends with him in the Mayo Clinic, she discovers what she knew all along-that life is precious and can't be redeemed by assumptions, empty words, or promises, and if angels really do exist, they went unnoticed in room 420. Borrowed Angel will open your heart to the pain, suffering, and ultimately the healing of a mother who lost the one thing in life that she loved most. It is a story that will show that angels really do exist, that they can mend a broken heart, and despite what others may believe, that they are servants of a higher power.

In 1901, the Abruzzi family leaves their ancient Sicilian home and boards a steamship for America. Like many other immigrant families, they are tormented by the grief of leaving behind their old lives and their loved ones, while facing an uncertain future. Six-year-old Lucio Abruzzi is locked inside his own undemonstrative world, while his mother, Catrina, observes his aberrant behavior with a nagging suspicion that something isn't quite right. His cruel father, Fortunato, feels only disdain for Lucio, believing him a disgrace to the family and therefore unworthy of his love. After enduring a grueling voyage across the Atlantic, an unexpected tragedy strikes, plunging Catrina into a deep state of emotional dejection and withdrawal. Several years later, after living a life of quiet desperation in a Bronx tenement, they are able to move to a small village in central New York. There they gain a firm foothold on the fertile land, while trying to fit into an apathetic community marked by open arms and closed minds. Just as all the Abruzzi's hopes and dreams seem to have vanished, Lucio encounters a young teacher who is drawn to his undeniable mystique, and she slowly begins to unravel his mind. They are friends whose dance is unrehearsed, whose spirits rise together, and there is no end in sight.

Many people make a home health agency work. There are the social workers who sit behind desks decorated with family photos and computer screens, indirectly making things happen for patients. There are the therapy coordinators. There are the doctors who fill out prescriptions for therapy evaluations. And there are the ladies at the front desk who hand out paychecks every two weeks. To them, patients are simply names on paperwork and voices on phones. They care, but they don't know. They have no idea what it is like to be out there "e;in the trenches"e; with patients who invite us occupational therapists into their homes and become real to us as we help and watch them heal, physically and mentally.Each of these patients had lived full lives prior to their diagnoses and had stories to tell and lessons to share, from which the stories in this book were born. In the Trenches provides a full picture of what truly helps a person heal: knowing that they are seen and heard and realizing they still have something to give to others, even while they fight to heal.So come with me along those winding back roads and into homes where the real battles are fought and where the true heroes live.
