"Losing a loved one doesn't mean losing their love"--Cover.
Summary:
"What happens when someone you love gets very, very sick? In this story, when a young child's mother gets sick, a magical creature appears. It grows and grows, just like a mother's love. Even as her illness takes a turn for the worse and the child faces tragedy, he can see the creature will always be there. Forever and ever. Terminal illness and its effect on a loved one is a hard thing for anyone to understand, especially a child. Written by a parent who has faced these possibilities, this touching book is an invaluable toll to help children cope with grief"--Dust jacket.
