For the Love of Mom was inspired by the loss of Tina Slinker's mother and father. It is a story of the passage of pain and sorrow that comes when someone we love dies. The book will take the reader on a healing journey through the many emotions involved in dealing with such profound loss. The author states, my mom died, and I guess I did too; revealing the complicated feelings of seeking to exist in a world without our mom beside us. It explores the idea that we never "get over the loss," we simply learn to somehow manage the pain. The reader is encouraged to feel whatever it is that they are feeling. This role-reversal of care that is required in these difficult days can be overwhelming. Losing your mother, at any age, is a certainly a life- altering change. It is a book that allows the reader the freedom to grieve and journey through their pain in their own way and it their own time. The book offers keys steps to effectively manage the many emotions in dealing with loss. For the Love of Mom is a book that is directed by the power of God, showing the reader that God hears our pain and is there to guide us through our sorrows. It teaches how we can allow God to reach into the depths of our souls with precise, healing power, as we discover tools for beginning a new life without our loved one beside us. More than a book about losing a mom, it is a celebration of the many blessings that life offers in hard times. Its resounding theme is one of encouragement to the readers to identify their emotions and find healthy ways to manage the pain.
