Refusing to Give Up Your Dreams

Champion Mindset

And I'll Never Love Him Less follows a couple's travels through the tragic and painful yet equally uplifting, humorous, and even joyful journey through the late stages of the devastating disease of Alzheimer's. In this sequel to the author's first book, I've Never Loved Him More, Candy and Drew Abbott's love story continues, with Drew in moderate cognitive decline through the final stages of dementia. Day by day, Candy pans for nuggets of joy and peace in the ups and downs of caregiving, sharing tales from the heart that will give you practical, sensitive insights. Keep your highlighter handy because she includes a ton of practical tips on how to make the best of the whole ordeal, and be prepared to share these pages with someone who struggles with patience and acceptance in dealing with the rough and tumble progression of Alzheimer's. But no matter what you're going through in life, her faith, wit, laughter, and tears will take you on a roller coaster ride you won't soon forget, leaving you feeling better, stronger, more loving and grateful for having read it.

Book 2 - the Rest of the Story

And I'll Never Love Him Less

Tears may flow in the night, but joy comes in the morning (Psalm 30:5). If you are grieving the loss of a loved one or helping someone through their final days on earth, this brief personal experience devotional is a proven resource for caretakers who are seeking an anchor. Find your joy in the mourning. "Mom wasn't much on material things," the author writes, "but she left her family a wealth of intangible treasure-the kind that shape personalities and influence households. She did things right. Neither her values nor her humility ever wavered. She taught us how to live with enthusiasm and showed us how to die with dignity. Mom's finest family heirloom is not something to be grasped; it is something to be lived. It's an attitude that says, 'It'll all work out in the end.'" In this short volume, the author has preserved her mother's memory in a tangible way so others may continue to enjoy her strength and character, possibly for generations to come. Candy's mom loved the ocean. Because the beaches of Delaware, Bermuda, and Panama hold many fond memories for their family, she painted a watercolor beach scene to depict the peace and contentment that her mother reflected-thus, Mourning Breakers. Tears flowed freely as the author wrote these words, and every now and then some humor would poke through. It is her hope that her personal experiences will serve as a reminder to lean on Jesus, who sent the Comforter to break through our grief. Hopefully, this devotional will enable readers to find the temporary agony of their own painful times transformed into cherished snippets of lasting memories.
