MIRACLE MINDSET: A Mother, Her Son, and Life’s Hardest Lessons

As Mother’s Day approaches and May 8th, the hurt I feel from losing my daughter is starting to take over my life. I feel myself slipping into a depression I might not recover from.

So as usual God knows our pain and the other day as I was cleaning my room, I found a book written by JJ Virgin called MIRACLE MINDSET: A Mother, Her Son, and Life’s Hardest Lessons. Now I have picked this book up many times and started to read it but I couldn’t get through it all the way.

As I would find myself asking what would have happened if we did this. Or what would have happened if Suzzane would have lived. So, after reading JJ story I know I would have been able to survive just as she did. JJ showed us that as moms we have strength, we don’t know we have.

So, if you would like to get a perfect Mother’s Day Gift for the moms on your list, I hope you check into this new book as well as all the other books she has written.

Through this book like any Chicken Soup book, I have read I just learned that I can preserve and soar through anything and God forbid it happening again but if something did happen to Charlie I could and would survivor as I am a survivor just as you are.

MIRACLE MINDSET: A Mother, Her Son, and Life’s Hardest Lessons by celebrity health expert and bestselling author JJ Virgin.

JJ is the internationally known author of 4 bestselling diet and health cookbooks. Working with Hollywood A-listers and everyday people alike she has built a blockbuster health and wellness empire on stamina, intuition, and determination. But it wasn’t until 2012 as she stood by her dying son while the doctors told her to “let him go” that she realized how powerful those traits were and that from that moment on every decision she made, minute-by-minute, was all or nothing.

In this riveting – and incredibly personal – account, JJ opens her heart to her readers and shares the story of her sixteen-year-old son who was left for dead by a hit-and-run driver and how, consumed by rage and hopelessness, she made the decision to trust her heart, defy the odds, choose forgiveness, and fight for his life. She ran her business from his bedside while tirelessly nursing him back to health and into the thriving young man he is today. More than page-turning memoir with a happy ending, MIRACLE MINDSET is JJ’s guide to the invaluable lessons she learned, how her life changed to become an advocate for those living with a brain injury, and how her readers can also overcome the seemingly impossible. Her “Miracle Mindset” transformation is based on the lessons she learned along the way such as: Don’t Wish It Were Easier—Make Yourself Stronger, Little Hinges Swing Big Doors, and Forgiveness Will Set You Free.
