If your child or the child of someone you know struggles with a life-threatening or chronic illness, then you know how all-consuming such circumstances are. There's no such thing as having a “normal life,” only a relentless and often lonely roller-coaster of giddy hope, stark fear, blessed victories, and shattering defeats—and constant prayer.

Jolene Philo knows how it is because she and her husband have traveled that road with their own son. In A Different Dream for My Child, Jolene shares frank, heartfelt meditations to build your faith and hope. You won't find trite, easy words. You will find rare understanding, refreshing honesty, and a wise spiritual companion to walk with you through the highs and lows that only the parents of chronically ill children can know.

What Others Are Saying

Average Rating

Our three year old son died from cancer recently. As a parent who walked the "cancer road" for two years, I can tell you that this book is a great resource in navigating the emotional highs and lows that you experience as the parent of a chronically ill child. A quick look at the table of contents shows the depth of understanding that Jolene Philo has when it comes to caring for a chronically ill child; an understanding that only one who has walked the road can have. This book would be a wonderful gift to someone caring for a sick child. The entries are short and easy to read, yet filled with wisdom and inspiration that comes from personal experience and a God who is truly a shelter in the storm.
