Disrupted: Finding Peace with a Parent's Terminal Illness
Disrupted: Finding Peace with a Parent's Terminal Illness
Am I strong enough for this?
How do I survive watching my parent suffer and die?
What do I tell my kids?
Where is God?
You don’t have to face these questions alone. When author Jen Babakhan’s mother was
given only a few months to live, her life was turned upside down.
Disrupted chronicles the anxious, grief-lined path many walk when facing the terminal
illness of a parent. With unflinching honesty and hope, each chapter shares the struggles and
triumphs of loving a parent through each step of the journey. You’ll find:
Real stories filled with hope providing a sense of community as you navigate this season.
Advice to ensure your parent receives the best treatment, as well as tools from mental
health professionals to help you process anxiety and grief.
Acceptance as you step into a new chapter of life with confidence in the midst of
uncertainty.
Peace is possible, even when a cure isn’t.
