"The author tells her story candidly, with attention to details that are both beautiful and difficult. She uses symbols and faith to describe the effects that loss and the grieving process have on her life. Her style is poetic and honest, never lacking in intensity." Dianne Harris Ed.D. Educator/Counselor

"Bloom is the most honest, vulnerable, personal account of a mother's grieving heart that I have ever read. One cannot help but feel a powerful bond with the Vargas family as their story of shattered bliss unfolds and begins to resolve. I have no doubt that God will mightily use Bloom in His providence for those who seek to pick up the pieces after the death of a cherished child."
