GoodNight Mom and Dad

GoodNight Mom and Dad tells how one phone call changes everything.

Yesterday you were planning next weekend.

Today you're learning medical terms you never wanted to know, making impossible decisions, balancing work and family, and wondering whether you're doing enough for the people who once did everything for you.

GoodNight Mom and Dad is the story of one ordinary family walking through terminal illness twice-first with a beloved mother, and many years later, with a father whose relationships were far more complicated.

It is not a book about dying.

It is a book about living well while someone you love is dying.

Through moments of heartbreak, humor, faith, regret, forgiveness, and unexpected grace, Thomas Denning invites readers into the conversations most families never know how to have until it's too late.

If you have cared for a parent...

If you are caring for one now...

Or if you hope to someday...

This book is for you.

Because terminal illness doesn't just change the person who is sick.

It changes the family around them.

And sometimes, the hardest lessons about love, responsibility, forgiveness, and grace come when there is the least time left to learn them.
