Near Death Experiences Books

I am sure everyone can agree that when you find a gem such as this ...you want to tell the world about it....but sometimes the subject matter might be hard for some to digest. All I can say is,,,,,this book is so very well written it reads like a fast paced novel that you can't put down. If you or someone you know is open to adressing current day issues by healing pastlife trauma through regression therapy...this book would be an outstanding introduction to the process.

Carol Bowman's Children's Past Lives, is possibly the best written work on children's reincarnation. From a terrribly personal perspective, the reader is drawn into the daily struggles of a child remembering. This book is spellbinding, and will leave you haunted with possibilities of reincarnation. I give it 5 stars! As it pertains, also see, Blessings in the Mire They're kindred!

Carol Bowman tells a compelling tale that will grab any mother or father who have a child that gives clear evidence of having lived before. The usual reaction is put the child to bed and soon it all goes away, but they may have thrown away a chance to learn more about life and what it means.

Carol's journey takes her on a tour of some of the better known authors on reincarnation giving recommendations along the way. It is like getting letters of introduction to these people and their texts.

The entire of her study, journey and work make a compelling case for reincarnation as well as opening a road to the more valid literature on the subject. This book is a key.

Carol Bowman has written a compelling book from her own research and clinical experiences about reincarnation especially in children. There are amazing true stories about traumatic memories recalled through regression into pain-filled emotions trapped inside the psyche and body. Sometimes these memories have manifested in disease which I find especially intriguing since I know first hand this is true. She has presented in detail some incredible remissions from diseases by purging their roots in memory banks of other lifetimes. Belief in reincarnation is the basis for carrying unchecked emotions from one lifetime into another.

There are very few authors willing to attempt the tricky walk into the mystical realm masked behind disease as mental and physical illness. To do this by past-life recall is new to many readers but it holds amazing healing power. Kudos Carol Bowman! One other book that I highly recommend to those who are interested in past life recall is: Eclipse of Fate...my healing journey through past-life recall, by Barbara Burritt. This book of memoirs from her private memory banks of past-life recall led to instantaneous healing from terminal breast cancer. It is time for science and the mystic to work together. There is more to disease than modern medicine can cure or comprehend. Healing comes from deeper resources than the flesh, because the unseen soul life holds ancient mysteries waiting to be remembered.

I bought this book after reading other books on reincarnation and saw all the 5 star ratings so I thought it would be good. I was wrong. This book tells interesting stories of the author's children's supposed accounts of past lives and even her own. They all seem to be from a distant time, which is unlike other books I've read on the subject.

But what is especially frustrating is that these stories are not verified, you just assume they're true, if you want. Considering there are books that detail research that has been conducted on actual accounts of verifiable past life experiences, why would anyone want to read one that doesn't? Then I got to page 43, read that questionable story, and the rest was all downhill.

If you want to read about great research on reincarnation that isn't fantastic story-telling, read Dr. Jim Tucker's Life Before Life or anything by Dr. Ian Stevenson because what makes their subjects' accounts remarkable is their ability to be verified, which is the most important aspect of their research. It's too easy to claim you lived a life so conveniently long ago that it cannot be verified and is what has always turned people off about claims of past lives.

Return from Tomorrow

I found this at the library and loved it so I purchased it for my father for his birthday. He called me after he received it and said he read it in one day, he couldn't put it down.

I found "Return from Tomorrow" to be a moving, compelling little gem. I have been sharing it with many friends and feel that you could have a ministry from what George Ritchie reports in his book. It was absolutely life changing for me. I thank Guideposts and George Ritchie for his inspiring and riveting story.

Excellent book for someone wanting to broaden his/her spiritual and religious base. It is a Christian book, but goes beyond traditional boundaries. The author discusses relationships with Jesus and God that are more personal and of more consequence that conventional teaching.

This is a fascinating real life-death account which I personally believe to be true. It gives great hope to those of us who are still alive and is a compelling and inspiring adventure.

I was originally loaned this book by a friend who made great claims about it. I was hesitant because most of us have heard the experiences of those with near or real death and then come back to tell about it. One day I picked up the book and starting skimming through it to the part where the death experience occurs, I couldn't put it down! its totally different than all the others I've heard about. In fact, once I finished the book I immediately started over from the very beginning. I bought this book to loan out to others and to re-read myself, it can be read in a few hours.

One of the most amazing books I have ever read. I strongly suggest engaging in a session of your own of the book's main subject before reading, as it will enhance your understanding of the experiences of the test subjects. Absolutely mind opening read, of one of the most challenging and informative studies in human neurology.

All these negative reviews have missed the importance of the work - DMT is in our - YOUR - heads and it just so happens to be a very potent hallucinogen. Why is it there? Not because we're all born drug abusers. Gimme a break. Its time to get on to the next chapter of the book of life and unfortunately (for the scientific and religious literalists both) thats going to be a stretch cause science has reached the point of scratching its head while somehow??? maintaining blind ignorance on the coat tails of old theoretical roadblocks. Religion has become a set of rules to abide by as the preaching carnies keep the truth of personal awakening buried under demands of sewing your seeds of cash and condemning the sins of "the others". Life IS a mystery and if we're going to try to figure it out we're going to have to dive deep into the vast pool of the mysterious to pull it out. Boil science with religion, pull off the heavy slag of rhetoric that bubbles to the surface and there you'll most likely find your pure extraction of the truth of the matter - just don't wait for science and religion to do it for you. The Kingdom of Heaven is within!

i do not read as much as i like to but, i could not put this book down. i have read strassman's book from cover to cover. if you are at all interested in pshycedelics or the human pshycy you will love this book.

As an experiant of a spontaneous mystical trip, one-off, 35 years ago, this book explains what happened in a sound melding of science and spirit.

I recommend this to anyone needing a jump start on transformational activities.

This book contains information regarding the ONLY DMT study conducted in the US. The book tells about what dmt is and where it comes from. The book also tells the journey the author had to take to get to the study. That was just as enlightening and entertaining. In the last chapter "The Futures of Psychedelic Research" the author list numerous future studies that could be performed. The book left me wondering if people who suffered from schizophrenia were people whose brain's produced more DMT than others? You will get a great insight from this book, even though much more research is obviously necessary to come to any concrete conclusion regarding DMT. Highly recommended.

I read Raymond A. Moody, Jr.'s LIFE AFTER LIFE after a friend recently recommended it to me. The book first came out some 25 years ago, and this new edition comes with an update in the form of an Afterword by the author. I was pretty familiar with the contents of LIFE AFTER OF LIFE already, for when it was first published in 1975 the book received considerable media attention and the idea of "near-death experiences" (NDEs, a term coined by Moody) was thoroughly discussed in the press. Nonetheless, I enjoyed reading through the book and refreshing my memory about the touchstones of the NDEs, such as the tunnel, being out of the body, the being of bright light, and the warm, euphoric feelings attending the experience particularly towards the end.

LIFE AFTER LIFE begins with a description of how Moody came about doing research in this area. He then gives as much of a common picture of the NDE experience as his 150 examples allow. Moody proceeds to give examples from specific cases of people he interviewed who claimed that they had had an NDE. (It might be possible that Moody might have been "leading" his subjects in the interviews, but it's clear that Moody regarded his role as an interested but neutral listener.) The author describes similar experiences described in religious and other nonfiction literature, some better known than others. (I found it curious that he did not cite works of fiction, such as Tolstoy's "The Death of Ivan Ilych," which, too, reflects some of the experiences described in Moody's book.) Finally, Moody lays out the various types of explanations for NDE--that is, aside from the idea that these people actually died and really experienced an afterlife--mainly with the aim of showing how the various scientific explanations fall short. Moody is careful to claim that he is "not trying to prove that there is life after death" (p. xxvii), but it is apparent where his sympathies lie.

Moody is right to suggest that the reductionist explanations from physiological, pharmacological, and neurological standpoints really haven't yet explained why people have these kinds of experiences. On the other hand, Moody adopts the classical concept of a mind-body dualism in discussing why people with NDEs describe, albeit with difficulty, having a new body, that in the midst of the NDE they can see their physical body, and how their minds feel unusually free, unclouded and ready to learn new things. This dualism is not well supported by science (it's not just the brain that "thinks"), and contemporary theology, too, would argue against it ("The only reality is the unity of the living creature called man..."--Wolfhart Pannenburg). It also raises the basis question in consciousness studies: can there be consciousness apart from the physical brain? I don't think it's too much of a leap to suggest that most brain researchers would probably say no, though many people with religious convictions would hold on to the idea that at the least something of one's personal identity--the "I"--survives death. Hence the question of life after death remains, essentially, a religious one.

There are those who might be drawn to the stories in this book as comfort in the face of the very natural fear of death. I would point those individuals to an online article by Kevin Williams, who accepts NDEs as actual life-after-death experiences, but who also maintains a healthy skepticism. He explains why it's irrational to fear death. See: http://www.near-death.com/experiences/articles007.html.

As I noted above, I found the book interesting to read, and might have appreciated it more if I didn't have such a déjà-vu feeling in reading it. Again, I think most people nowadays are familiar with the NDE concept. But this is where it all started, and it's good to have the baseline of this book as a reference to what's been discussed since.

I have read many books on near death experiences and the accounts in this book ring true. I have lost loved ones and I know there is life after death, because I have received after death communications. I would recommend this book to the bereaved and to those facing the impending death of a loved one.

Raymond Moody's book is a must read for anyone interested in the scientific proof that goes along with this type of investigative study. Written from the perspective of a once-sceptic, he quickly moves through the stages of doubt to belief when the details of patient after patient reveal earily similar cannot be denied details of what happens after we pass and that is - simply that we don't die!

Sally Shields, www.TheDILRules.com

Gives accounts from persons that have had a near death experience and also discusses the notion of life after death. Helpful if you have recently lost someone or just interested in the topic. I would recommend to others.

I read quite a few books about NDEs before I bought this one. No doubt it was very controversial when it was originally published. Dr. Moody does a very good job of compiling and comparing data from interviews with the people who had these experiences to capture the "essence" of dying and how it changed their perspective on life. This is definitely what he does best. The part to support NDEs through sources like the Tibetan Book of the Dead and the writings of Emanuel Swedenborg was lacking. But in his defense, it had to be put in there or the book would have been classifed under fiction.

Howard Storm's remarkable journey to the gates of hell and his subsequent rescue by Jesus which completely transformed his life is, by definition, a story of salvation as Christians understand it. From the moment he prays in that dark place of despair, and sees a light being coming towards him, he immediately identifies this being as Jesus. He spends time in the company of Jesus and the angels learning about God's nature and his plan for all of us, and the way we can accept God's will or turn from it. He asks questions, all of which are answered in a way consistent with the way God and His Son are revealed in scripture. Then there is the story of Howard after he returns to this life: he burst at the seams with joy at God's love for everyone and wanted to tell everyone about it. How is that not a Christian experience of deliverance and carrying the joyful message to everyone? The closing line of the book is "Jesus is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. He is the best friend you will ever have." Rest assured, this IS a Christian book.

Ok, I've read something like 10 NDE books as well as countless stories of them from the IANDS site, but this book is by far the best. If you're looking for something that is realistic, and doesn't lie to you about virtually everybody going to Heaven (now there's an inconvenient truth, eh?), then this is the book for you. Keep in mind that even Dannion Brinkley himself admits that he was wrong about telling everyone that there is nothing other than love and light in the afterlife. In his recent book (Secrets of the Light) he acknowledges that his experiences are not, and are not going to be, everyone's. I commend Dannion for coming to that realization and helping others to see it too. And it was this book that helped me do a 360 when I was in the midst of persecuting everything except new age fluff (*shakes head* all that time wasted, as a self-righteous fool indeed). All I search for is the truth, and I believe that can best be found in this book as well as some of Emanuel Swedenborg's writings. I know that in recent times Christianity has gotten a horrible rep, and the Inquisition is inexcusable we can all agree (see how no one is denying that, let's face it they were demons in sheep's clothing were they not?), however, you might possibly feel caught up in the lie that everything is fine and dandy in the new-age fluff world, which of course you know isn't true (visit your local ER on a Friday night or penitentiary on any day, as a reference for why that's a conclusion to be made) so I highly recommend this book for you. For all we really know, all those people "lying to you about hellfire" might have really cared about you and been trying to warn you about hell's salivating mouth that's waiting to give you your real welcome. And if you don't think that hell should exist then I must introduce you to some of my neighbors at once. In this book Jesus says that religion isn't the important thing it's people's hearts that matter, nice message and I very much agree with it, but let's face it it was Jesus Himself that saved this man and not just some multidimensional martian entity with a soft-spot for humankind. Recommended but not for the faint of heart, as I believe Mr. Storm really did experience the bowels of hell. My Descent Into Death, the book that changed me for the better and might change you too.

First, I would like to say that I am so tired of the christians & the catholics with their bible opinions about this book. New age is not really new age it's old just as Gnostic Christianity/Jewish Mysticism are ancient religions. Nobody disrespects your religion don't disrespect others for their beliefs. BTW who wrote the bible? How does anyone know that is truly the word of god & not lies? Everyone knows that the bible has had texts taken out, manipulated texts, & things added in by the catholic church. So do not assume that you know the truth because really no one does & all religions will bring you to god. As for this book I loved it & I thought it was absolutely beautifully written. Truly inspiring!!!

I loved this book. I think every human being should read this. Really let's you see what's important in life and what's not. This is a wonderful glimpse of the other side. It's easy to read and such an encouragement.

This is a must read book. I have shared with several friends and all have had a postive feedback from reading this book!

I bought this book as a recommendation when I purchased another item. The positive reviews are all from people who work for this outfit. Prayer classes, teleconferences, animal healing, hmmm, doesn't this sound like tbn or the bakkers? How quickly we forget? We should be responsible for our own lives instead of giving our power away to such confused folks.
Meditate and save your money!

This is the best book I have read. I read daily and read multiple books in a month and this is by far the bestbook with so much heart, compassion, important and invaluable information in it for everyone. Tiffany Snow is an awesome, down to earth, and compassionate person who lives her life for God and is the happier and better for it. She is free of the ties that bind us and gives from the heart and this book and her other books and her daily life are examples of the compassion and giving this woman has been given and all I can say is "Thank you God for Tiffany Snow". She can show you the REAL God and the REALITY of life in this world and how to enhance your life so you can be happy, healthy, free and get to know the only person who really matters, "GOD". I found this book to be full of wonderful heartfelt stories and examples of how everyone should live their lives to get the most out of them and to serve God, which is the whole reason we are here to begin with. Tiffany Snow sees that and has dedicated her life to it and I for one applaud the work she does and thank God for her and all the ways HE lets Tiffany's light shine through for the rest of us. We could all learn a big lesson from Tiffany and if you read the book and get nothing more than happiness and a sense of feeling good about what she does, then you will have gained a lot from the book and Tiffany. I hope you will read this wonderful book that has something to offer everyone even if it is just in telling of her adventures with others. Please do yourself a favor and read this marvelous book. I don't think you will be sorry you did.

THE only book ever written that is both ALL PSYCHIC and ALL RELIGIOUS, perhaps it's the only one! Unique understandings, different from most NDE books - has exercises to wake up the NDE in all of us. Some spiritual books have an air of cult about them, this book has no such thing. Great, great, great read.

I was given this book. I probably would never have purchased as I was raised with Hell Fire and Damnation Born Again family. I have had enough of shame based guilt! But her book is a perfect book for those who of all denominations and those who chose to be with out a formal church. I am an educated person pursuing her doctorate in psychology, as such I am a skeptic of much. This book transcends all of the books I have read so far, including Tolle, Browne, Renard,Choquette, Althea, Van Pragh you name it. I have used the techniques in the book and and I have had amazing things happen. Tiffany Snow is truly in the light.

Hands down, this book is the most idiotic Christian propaganda I have ever read.

This book provides great information, as each of the things this book teaches is backed up by the Word of God. I highly recommend this book to anyone!

This book is one of the greatest books I have ever read, and certainly the greatest on the subject of Hell.

The encounters with God are breathtaking!

This book taight me a great deal about the christian faith. I decided to receive the Lord after reading it!

After reading this book, I purchased copies for several of my family members and friends. All gave thier hearts to the Lord!

Prior to reading this book, I thought that my denomination was the only one that was right. Now I know that God wants me to love all of my Christian brothers and sisters.

The book is in great condition. It did take a very long time to arrive. However it was still within the estimated delivery window given. I was in no hurry, so it was not a problem for me.

This is an epic tale of a Mexican-Indian girl with healing powers (the Saint of Cabora) who lived on a ranch with her father. This novel is full of magical realism and beautiful writing. I enjoyed the wonderful dialog and the detailed characterization of Thomas Urrea (the father) and Teresa Urrea (the saintly daughter). I found the plot to be a bit wandering at times, but the reading experience was always enjoyable.

Among the many outstanding qualities of Luis Urrea's magnificent novel, The Hummingbird's Daughter, is that the story is substantially true. It is based on the historical record of his great aunt Teresa Urrea. The dialog and the personalities have been reconstructed, but anyone who cares to research the matter as I have will learn that the incredible life of the Hummingbird's daughter, Teresita Urrea, is accurately depicted.
Born out of wedlock to an illiterate Indian mother, she has no idea that her father is Don Tomás Urrea, rich landowner and freethinker in the Mexican state of Sinaloa. At about age six she is taken under the tutelage of an elderly Indian healer named Huila, whose name means "hummingbird" in the Indian language. From her Teresita learns the uses of healing plants and prayers and discovers an even greater gift: she actually has the power to heal by her touch.
This causes problems. The ranch becomes crowded with thousands of pilgrims bearing the most pitiful ailments and afflictions, and the Mexican government, watchful to suppress any threats to its power, is suspicious of her growing fame. The shattering climax of the story calls that old cliché to mind: you can't make this stuff up. It wasn't! Unbelievable as it is, it happened.
The Hummingbird's Daughter is the story of a girl coming to terms with her destiny, with the power of faith and miracles, and with a father's and daughter's discovery of what love is and the sacrifices it sometimes requires.
The book is densely populated with cowboys, outlaws, wild Indians, men who drink too much, cantina beauties, mercy and cruelty, bravery and cowardice, and nature at its rawest. There are a fair number of Spanish words, untranslated, but these will not detract from the enjoyment of those who do not care to look them up. To add a historical note, the story is a wonderful snapshot of revolutionary Mexico along the American border.
Finally, the prose style is marvelously poetic: easy to read, but magically evoking the character of Mexico in all its color and contradictions. The description of the various ways Mexicans prepare coffee as the sun dawns gradually across the country could be excerpted as a fine poem all by itself. I have read the book three times, and in its own way it has influenced my writing as much as Huckleberry Finn, with which it shares many qualities. I even bought a second copy to lend, so as not to risk my own, precious, annotated copy. I grew up in El Paso. Teresita lived there briefly, yet I had never heard of her. This is a shame: her story and this book deserve to be better known.


Al Past is the author of the Distant Cousin series, reviewer for PODBRAM, and member of the Independent Authors Guild. He lives in south Texas. More about his books is at the Distant Cousin website (dot net). They are available here: Distant Cousin: a novel, Distant Cousin: Repatriation, and Distant Cousin: Reincarnation.

"The Hummingbird's Daughter" by Luis Alberto Urrea is a novel based in fact and incidents from his family's history. It tells the story of Teresita, the illegitimate daughter of Tomás Urrea, set in the large haciendas of northern Mexico in the late nineteenth century during the presidency of the dictator Porfirio Diaz.

Teresita is schooled by an old Mayo medicine woman, Huila, a curandera, a kind of female shaman, herbalist, mid-wife, and healer, who trains Teresa in these arts. Because of political troubles and fear of violence, Don Tomás abandons one hacienda and moves his family and a large entourage, including Huila and Teresita, to a different hacienda farther north.

Don Tomás' friend Don Lauro Aguirre, a journalist and political activist, is forced to go to El Paso, Texas, to continue his anti-Diaz campaign, and Teresa adopts his political stance. When word gets out that Teresita can work miracles curing the sick, thousands of pilgrims, who call Teresita a saint, settle in camps around the hacienda of Don Tomás to wait their turn for Teresita's ministrations. One of these pilgrims is a man called Cruz Chávez, the leader of a militia called the Tigers of the Sierra, who styles himself "the Pope of Mexico."

Teresita becomes a problem both for the Church and the government, and she is targeted by spies and potential assassins, and the final part of the book is a long and dangerous train trip with Don Tomás and Teresita held captive in cages, but in the end, they are saved and set free in North America.

Urrea's novelized story of his great aunt, the "Saint of Cabora, Teresita Urrea, is an incredible story of an incredible woman. Teresita came out of utter poverty to become an icon of faith for the Yaqi people, especially, but for all Mexican people as well. She endured abuse by her Aunt Tia, was brutally raped by a ranch hand, and nearly killed by her deranged husband (although that piece is NOT in the novel). Teresita became a rallying point, a Joan of Arc, without her overt participation in the Mexican Revolution.

Teresita was, above all, a curandera, a healer with the same kind of powers that we read of in Christian scripture exhibited by Christ. She died as he did at the age of 33. She lived as Christ did, working with, being with, the poor and the outcast. She spoke as Jesus did, speaking truth to power; and, like Jesus, she became an enemy of the State.
Teresita is in my opinion a saint. However, she will most likely never be canonized by the Vatica since she had challenged the Church and preached a rather unorthodox theology. To canonize Tersita Urrea would mean exposing the hideous warts on the nose of the Church itself. The important thing is that the Mexican people have already "canonized" her!

This is a book which I have read and discussed with two different book discussion groups. It was a near unanimous 5-Star hit with both groups.

In this uniquely formatted and immediately engaging book, Harper shares his spiritual quest for enlightenment. His wide range of knowledge and experience in everything from mathematics to anthropology and shamanism gives the book perspective, with quotes from other "great minds" make fun reading.

Tranceformers begins with a plethora of beautiful quotes from Buddha to Wood Allen. I highly suggest taking the time to read through these and enjoy each one. They are wonderful. The book itself is an insightful, sometimes heart tugging journey beginning with the relationship and loss of a close friend and how his "other side" visit has taken the author on a journey into Shamans and their role in society. This is a very interesting read for readers who have any curiosity about Shamans.

I put this book down for good about 3/4 of the way through. Most of the information is quotes, references to other authors' work, or NDE narrative. While this is interesting, it seems to me that the only contribution the author made was stating his theories here and there. He claims that these theories are true, but does not provide any explanation to help the reader understand his train of thought in order to arrive at their own conclusion. Theories are great fun, but I am turned off by someone who tells me what there theory is, claims that it's obviously true, but doesn't tell me why. I rarely leave a book unread, but just couldn't finish this one.

This was an awesome read!! It was mind opening and stimulating. I did have to reread some pages as it is abit heady at times, but it was so informative. I have been on to something for a while internally and this book really helped put some peices together for me...Thank You John Jay Harper.
I will comtinue to Visualize World Peace

First of all, the reason this book has sold so well, and the reason there are so many reviews here, is because of the author's multiple guest spots on Coast to Coast AM (para-meta-conspiracy, alternative radio), of which I am a long time listener. This is my kind of book, I was more than willing to eat it up. But what I experienced was one of the most poorly written, poorly edited smorgasbords of loosely related material with constant, almost paranoiac, reference to the work of others, that I found it almost unreadable. I mean I had to put that puppy down for a while until I again had the fortitude to continue. By the time I finished it,... weeks,... there was nothing about it I carried away with me. No inspiration, no follow-up based on the voluminous reference material,.... nothing. I actually think he ended up reining all his stuff for me. Anyway, if you want my suggestion, if you want spiritual, related to 2012, new age, etc., try Ramtha or James Gilliland. If you want armchair compilation experts, try to find someone who can write. You will, there are many.

Interesting reading. Many stories to make you wonder if there may really be an afterlife, and which can contact this life. Very helpful to read about other's experiences after losing one's one pets.

This is a comforting book for someone who has lost a beloved pet. The author believes wholeheartedly that pets also have souls and that often they are able to return and comfort us after they die. This book was given to me after the death of an animal and I purchased this copy for my sister when she experienced a loss.

I absolutely loved this book. It was a great help to me during my time of grief. This book would make a wonderful gift to anyone who has recently or ever lost a pet. I look forward to future books by this author.

I cannot begin to say what a wonderful book this is! Having lost a precious companion (Tyson my cat - tragically hit by a car), Ive read a lot of books on pet loss. This book was by far the most helpful. Kim Sheridan is a talented heartfelt writer and her collection of theories and stories are reassuring and heartwarming. I was incredibly lost before reading this book, and since reading it my life is forever changed - for the better! My heart, body, mind and soul have been transformed and I now know that there really is no such thing as death because the afterlife is very real. I am so grateful for Kim to share her experiences and to write this wonderful book, and I have even bought more copies to share with people that have also lost a beloved creature. I cannot say enough good things about this book. If you or someone you know has lost someone special, this book is an absolute MUST READ! 5+ stars to Kim Sheridan!!!

This book was not only healing but an inspiration that led my husband and I to animal rescue work. Working with local shelters and rescue groups, we provide a final home and end-of-life care for small animals that are too emotionally or physically ill to be successfully adopted into the average household. Our current "furry crew" consists of rabbits, chinchillas, fancy rats, gerbils, a mouse, a dwarf hamster, as well as the resident matriarch, our white-face cockatiel Pheonix.
