My Novels and Biographies

A devoted mother. The hidden will of her terminally ill 12 year old. Is their Christian faith strong enough to survive their dark trial?

Does the fear of dying keep you from living? It didn’t stop Melody.

Diagnosed with leukemia shortly after her 12th birthday, Melody continued to live to the fullest – befriending backyard hummingbirds and crocheting clothes onto countless stuffed animals.

She surprised doctors with her unusual answers to their questions. She delighted other cancer patients when playing sonatinas skillfully on the hospital piano (although the E key was painfully out of tune). She was a shining example of how to live life with joy while peacefully facing death that was just around the corner.

This true story of how she and her family dealt with Melody’s illness and death will inspire you to live each day with fullness of heart and an eye to eternity. You will get to read sections of Melody’s personal journal, hear about a miracle designed just for her, and you will find out how up to the very end Melody was scheming with her siblings to bring special comfort to her mother.

If you want to understand how to have hope that makes a difference in the face of death and where to find such hope, read or listen to Melody’s Life Savings. Get it today.
