A Mother's Memory

About the Book

My choice to keep my son at home, during his illness, seemed like the only option due to my son’s aversion to staying in a hospital. It was a hard decision with lasting consequences. The choices were either hospital or home as hospices were not offered as an option at that time. This is his story - my memories.

About the Author

Jean Meikle, is living quietly with her husband, Charlie, with the feeling of accomplishment that this book is finally in print. Her surviving children, Mary and Cam have helped in the process of making this a reality. There is a cathartic property of putting pen to paper and telling about a very traumatic and sad time in your life. The hope is that this story will encourage someone else who is dealing with or has dealt with losing a child. It is the story of a brave young man and a very strong, loving Mom. Well done Mom! Something else to cross off your bucket list!
