Syracuse, N.Y. (MMD Newswire) February 22, 2016 — What Happens When You Search for Hope?
Beyond a Charmed Life, A Mother’s Unconditional Love is an inspirational memoir about a mother’s love for her special needs son with heartfelt stories and a triumphant spirit of overcoming insurmountable challenges. From caretaker to advocate role, Barbara Huntress Tresness wants to share “you are not alone and hope does exist”. This is a story of tenacity, triumph and a spiritual awakening to the universal forces that help mother and child have an unbroken bond.
Tresness wants to impart a sense of solidarity for readers who may have faced similar challenges. This universal story of a mother’s unconditional love is woven with a canvas of human emotion. Reader comments include: “From heavy to humor, this story is beyond real. Tresness invites you to laugh, cry, but mostly to find hope, love, and joy for yourself.”
“Sharing our stories out loud helped me and helped others. It got easier as I began to tell some of what had happened to us. I kept many journals and wrote about my feelings good and bad because I never wanted Graham to think he was difficult to care for. I wanted him to know he was loved unconditionally.” – Barbara Huntress Tresness
