WHEN SUDDEN LOSS CHANGES EVERYTHING


One phone call. One moment. Everything changed.


When a late-night call from the sheriff’s office shattered her world, one mother was forced to face the sudden loss of her adult son and the painful work of learning how to breathe again.


Austin’s Cabin: Clinging to Hope is a deeply honest, faith-centered book that provides faith-based encouragement for anyone navigating grief, shock, guilt, anger, or the fear that healing somehow means letting go.


Through personal story, spiritual reflection, and gentle journaling practices, Paulette Reed, Author, offers grief support and comfort for those trying to survive unimaginable loss. This is not just an inspirational blog; it is a book about surviving one breath, one prayer, one moment at a time.


If you are wondering how to face another day after loss, this book was written for you.

BOOK REVIEWS

 -- Austin's Cabin grabbed my heart in so many ways! It’s the only book I’ve ever read that I can say that about. I read it all in one day. . . but it will stay with me for life. C.R. 


-- Austin’s Cabin was a great read! I recommend it for anyone who is carrying grief. I shared my book with a friend who lost her grandson several years ago and she said it was very comforting. I was disappointed when I finished the book . . . I wanted to read more. J.A. 


 -- Austin's  Cabin is a beautifully written book. Paulette is transparent and  vulnerable as she shares the depths of her own grief ... and because of  that, it is much easier to trust her and accept her excellent,  compassionate  counsel as she walks with the reader as they process  their own grief. As I read it, I too had just experienced loss. The  circumstances couldn't be more different... she'd lost her son in the  prime of his life, and I'd lost my father, who'd lived a full life and   was just five months shy of 100. Our sadness and grief were in no way on  the same level, yet even so, her words comforted me, inspired me and  deeply blessed me.  I heartily recommend this book for anyone  experiencing any kind of loss, at any stage of life. Carol M. 


-- I loved this book. I ordered one for a family member who needs healing from loss. M.F.  


-- This book is spot on what I went through  when my wife passed away.  Lots of loneliness and questions.  Paulette  addressed these questions and gave me lots of spiritual inspiration. Easy read for me. Would recommend this book to anyone who lost a loved one. Brad S. 


-- Austin's  Cabin was so inspiring to me. It took me back to a time in my life with  the death  my sister that I had never let go of.  The moment I read  it, I got my healing. Pastor Bev


-- My husband read this book  and had realized that the unexpected death of his cousin, and best  friend, had affected him so greatly.  It brought him out of a terribly  dark time. Recommend this book to ANYONE who has lost someone they love!!!!


-- Austin’s Cabin was deeply meaningful and such a great tool for those going through the grieving process. Sometimes we don’t know what to expect, and what to do with our feelings when faced with devastating loss. Austin’s Cabin makes us feel normal in our feelings as we realize that what we go through is what many already have. We are not alone. The book contained valuable lessons and takeaways. T.R. 


-- Paulette has a well written book about grief, told from a mother’s heart. It leads us to God and His Word which is very comforting. I especially liked the part where Austin was a “Champion Wrestler.” G.F.  


-- I just received Austin’s Cabin by Paulette. It’s helping me work through the grief of losing my mom. What an amazing book! S.S.
