Description

Children of Courage is about a family of six children and their parents. Being born with terminal illnesses (Cystic Fibrosis), two of the children faced the certainty of early deaths, while the remaining four nurtured, watched, and adjusted as they bid their brother and sister a final goodbye. It took a monumental courage by those facing death to go forward, and it took another type of courage, equally as demanding, for others to adapt and continue on with their own lives. Children of Courage is a family narrative of trial, acceptance, adjustment, and hope as told through entries their father made in his journal wth every measure of succored time lived by their mother. Charles W. Allen wrote Children of Courage with the hope that it would provide comfort, courage, and hope to anyone faced with difficulties, especially those of a long-term nature. He wanted the reader to understand the importance adversity is in building character. Patience, determination, and acts of service to others, while we are being served and challenged, are vital in conquering adversity as we accept our opportunities for real understanding and quality growth. The author wanted those who labor under great challenges to know of the help that he and his family received from others and the strength he gained from reading stories of courage and determination from those who suffered. Children of Courage was written to give back, in some measure, that which he and his family received from others.
