Cuando Dios dice no es un raro regalo que permite al lector el acceso al alma misma de una madre mientras intenta desesperadamente aferrarse a la fe, al tiempo que acepta las discapacidades de su hijo, profundamente afectado por el autismo y la epilepsia."Él me ha rescatado del borde cuando estaba segura de que iba a caer, desmoronándome en un millón de pedazos. He pasado horas en la oscuridad, sentada y meciéndome en el suelo, luchando por mi cordura. Llorando y gimiendo cuando estaba demasiado afligida para orar. He sentido que el espíritu de temor me paralizaba. Me he encontrado con el espíritu del suicidio mientras conducía por un puente. He cargado con la oscura nube de la depresión y he experimentado la sofocante falta de aire de la ansiedad. Me he enfrentado a la muerte en todos los niveles, la muerte del cuerpo, del alma y del espíritu, y cada vez me he levantado de nuevo, con la determinación de vivir un día más." Denise Wynn"Estos escritos crudos y desnudos, revelan el amor inextinguible y paciente entre una madre y su precioso hijo. Dentro de cada página hay una esperanza fresca para la situación más difícil, y un suave viento de gracia para levantar al cansado y llevarlo directamente a los brazos de Aquel que sana al quebrantado y al dolido." Nancy J. Grandquist
