Running with the Angels
A bereaved mother's journey from hopelessness to HOPE
by
Colette (Ruel) Howery
"Running with the Angels" is the story of a mother's sudden loss of her son; a loss that shattered her to the core of her being. Writing a book did not enter her mind as she worked through her intense grief. However words seemed to write themselves as the author studied, journaled, jotted notes on scrap paper, recorded her thoughts and feelings, wiped the tears off her face and documents, kept writing in a confused mixture of English, French and occasional swear words. Persisting through the mess, paragraphs appeared, some chapters lined up; a book took shape as the mother's grief became reconciled and integrated over the years. Now it has evolved into a completed memoir. May this book serve as a survival guide and a source of hope for all bereaved mothers and fathers.
COLETTE (RUEL) HOWERY was born in northern Saskatchewan, Canada; she completed her schooling in a French community in northern Alberta prior to moving to Edmonton to study Nursing. She is the oldest daughter in a family of eight children who were all involved in their parents' family businesses. She lived her married life in Viking, AB where her three sons were born and raised. She claims that being a MOM was the best thing that ever happened to her and that her nursing career fulfilled her purpose in helping others. When suddenly introduced to a world of immense grief; Colette felt she had no choice other than to learn as much as she could about grief before sorrow had a chance to consume her. Read about her learning curve as she navigates her journey of loss while immersed in grief studies. See "About the Author" inside, at the end of her book.
