Everyone uses significant events as markers to reference their lives by. A reference marker is a significant event like after we graduated from college, before our wedding day, after our first child was born. Now the only markers in my life are before the accident or after the accident, before my child and husband died or after my child and husband died. There is a time of limbo where time itself has no meaning. Your life becomes a continuation of an unthinkable circumstance, an unacceptable situation, and an irrepressible desire to turn back the hands of time to keep what you had a mere second ago.
This book is about a remarkable little girl who is in heaven with the angels. Her spiritual presence touches my life as well as the lives of others every day. For all the gifts both she and my husband gave to me, this is in a small way for me to give back. To help someone else who is going through loss. Give an uplifted moment, or a needed boost of strength. This world has been all the better for them having been here, and my life all the more richer.
Find one person who walked the path before you, and you find hope. Find one sliver of light, like a beacon in the dark, and you find the possibility of survival. My hope is her story brings joy and hope, comfort and thoughtful reflection. Rebecca Bamford

Rebecca says, "On July 5, 1999, my life changed forever. Both my nine year old daughter and my husband were killed in a car accident. I arrived at the police station with my mother. I passed by the glass window and saw in my eyes a reflection of fear so great I did not recognize myself.
One death was unbearable, but two were imcomprehensible. My story is about surviving the unthinkable, celebrating a little girl's life, and learning how to live again."
