In The Shadow Of My Daughter's Death

In The Shadow Of My Daughter's Death is about my daughter, Kemeil Patrice Thompson, her six-year-long battle with cancer, and the emotional struggles with disappointment she fought from childhood into adulthood. It also includes my journey as her mother watching her suffer in body and mind.

Also intertwined with her journey are my experiences as a young single mother at sixteen and being clearly unprepared to do so.

In The Shadow Of My Daughter's Death addresses Kemeil's physical and spiritual turmoil and her attempts to self-isolate and solve her problems alone.

How did a precious, beautiful, talented, young lady raised in the church most of her life turn to alcohol and suicide?

Through her path filled with heartache, pain, and tears, she ultimately finds redemption in God's grace, forgiveness, restoration, and peace.

I pray that this book may resonate with something in you where you can relate to either some or all of Kemeil's story. May this book touch you in some way and be a blessing to many more that read it. God bless you!
