Cardinals appear when Angels are near Cindy Biggins-Joseph

Cardinals Appear When Angels Are Near takes you on a wonderful journey of love and the bond of DJ and PaPa's, (his grandfather) relationship as DJ grows from a baby to adolescence then the revelation he experience as an adult.

The journey is full of love and teaching as PaPa steps in to raise DJ as his own, after DJ's father passes before he was born and the challenges DJ faces when several tragedies happens to him as he grows up through Middle School and High School.

Children who face the passing of a loved one, especially a parent or grandparent experience very serious challenges that some families must face. Kids manifest grief in a variety of ways and emotions, withdrawing from family and friends, crying, depression, failing at school, not eating, over-eating and even anger.

Parents, in those times, when you just can't seem to find the right words to say or things to do to help the child that you love move forward, there is help in the healing process.

I know firsthand how grief takes hold of you and you just can't seem to shake it no matter how hard you try. When my own mother passed in 2019, it took some time for me to be my normal self again, but with the assistance of friends, family, loved ones and professionals, slowly but surely I made it back.

So, if I'm an adult who thinks I have it all together, just imagine how a child feels.

Please allow those professionals to step in and help you in the recovery and care of your child's wellbeing and happiness to move forward, some kids are strong while others are not. Grief is real; however, the good news is; the battle can be won!

Remember, it takes a village to help raise a child, you're not alone in the grieving process.
