"It's a boy, but there are complications... He's not going to live more than a few hours."Shocked by the diagnosis, Sandy Cappelli turned to God for answers. Why would You overcome my infertility, and then ask me to let my miracle child go after only a few hours? Is this really Your plan? "I have a promise for this child."With the promise from God and previous miracles to hang onto, Sandy made her decision and followed His prompting to write her story as it transpired. Overwhelmed with the weight of her calling, Sandy begged God for answers to the questions we all ask when faced with fear, doubt, and pain: What IS God's promise, and how can we be sure we haven't misunderstood it? Could a crisis or tragedy become a blessing...even part of His plan for us?In Because of a Promise, Sandy shares her raw, transparent journey of faith, and the revelation of God's promise - a promise that changed her life and allowed her to create ripples of impact in the world, not in spite of, but because of, the difficult journey she walked. What ripples could you make because of your journey? "He hath made everything beautiful in His time..."Ecclesiastes 3:11

Her self-deprecating accountsoverflow with endearing and captivating honesty during what is unarguably one ofthe most vulnerable times of her life. Tongue-in-cheek, she pores over the bizarrerites of the cancer patient--from PICC lines to hair loss--the distressing changesin relationships, the confounding wrestle with mortality, and the significance offaith in the light of it all.This book offers a selection of entries from her blog Damned Near Killed Him.The entries were compiled by her friend, Sandy Oshiro Rosen (author of Bare--TheMisplaced Art of Grieving and Dancing), who also contributed the Foreword andAfterword.It offers an honest, unembellished insight into the private life of Sandy Glum asshe bares herself--body and soul--to deliver a touching and inspiring narrative.
