Storms roll in and out of our lives... it might be a broken relationship, a job loss, an illness, or worse, the death of a loved one. So how do we find a rainbow when we are on such a dark journey? This book shares how one family chose to see the rainbows in their lives. Are you ready to find the rainbows in your life? When Ann and her husband walked into the doctor's office, they were prepared to hear the worst. Randy had been battling with cancer for a long time and they knew that there was a possibility that the latest treatment hadn't been successful. They were right. And on a fateful day Randy said goodbye to his loved ones and went to be with the Lord. As Ann and her children mourned the loss of their husband and father, they began to see that perhaps things were not as bleak as they first seemed and that perhaps, with the help of a loving community and family, they might emerge from this storm strong and full of light. Almost any family can point to a date when their family, in some way or another, changed forever. For Ann Asprey's family, that day was July 21, 2004. Rainbows in the Storm chronicles her family's journey since that day through the severe illness of a loved one and all the trials, tears and unexpected triumphs discovered in her family's storm.
