Description

An Angel’s Kiss is the factual story of the birth and subsequent struggle for survival of a child born with a cancer that afflicts only .2% of all people diagnosed each year. Readers are taken through the author’s pregnancy, delivery, her son’s diagnosis of adrenocortical carcinoma, and ultimately her unrelenting depression. It is a realistic account of a mother’s fight to save her son’s life, to reclaim her family, and in the end to save her from the guilt that she allowed to consume her for years. Krajewski speaks honestly about the emotions most mothers don’t want to admit feeling. Her candidness spins a tale of fear and grief. It shows the raw pain that this monster of a disease causes. Krajewski has given readers the opportunity to stand in her shoes and experience something nobody should endure; however, in the end it is a story of survival, determination, a mother’s refusal to allow her child to become a statistic, and ultimately inspiration.

This book had me in tears from start to finish. What the author and her family went through was just unbelieveable,you can tell the author wrote this book with her heart and soul. Not only is it a story of a child born with cancer ,its about a mothers love and determination to fight for her son even when things seemed hopeless. I read the whole book in one day,not only was this book heart wrenching but it was inspiring,I could not put it down. Everyone should buy this book to help raise awareness for this type of cancer.

This book is absolutely heart wrenching. From the first page I found it impossible to put down and ended up reading it completely in one sitting. I found myself sobbing because the author's pain felt so real yet by the end I was crying tears of happiness. The fact that this book is a true story about her experience is amazing! I have never heard of anyone actually having cancer while still in the womb yet that is actually what happened during her prgnancy with her son. I felt like I was reading fiction because of the style of writing yet I was constantly reminded of the truth of what actually happened. I give the author a tremendous amount of credit for her honesty and the fact that she didn't sugar coat her feelings to be politically correct. I have never been in her shoes but I am sure she isn't the only person to feel the way she did. This book is such an amazing account of a mother's love for her child and how much she is willing to sacrifice of herself for her family. It is the type of book that will stick with me for a long time! Anyone who reads this book and doesn't give it a great review doesn't know what they are talking about and anyone who decides not to read this book doesn't know what they are missing!

Great writer and A Heartfelt Book!!

I LOVE THIS BOOK!!

I want to start out by saying I am NOT a reader of books. But I could not put it down once I started reading it. The book had me in tears at times to pure happiness at other times. It was so well written, Buffy takes you through all her thoughts and feelings in such a way, it was like I was her and going through it all. It really touched my heart. I would recommend this to anyone who loves to read and people like me who dont, this book gets your hooked from the very first few opening words. Buffy is such an inspiration to all women to trust your motherly instinct and fight for what you know is right.She is a brave person to go through all she did and then find the strength to put it down in words. She should be so proud!! This book should be on the Oprah's book club list in my eye's. Buffy is an amazing women and writer and most of all a loving mother of that amazing and miracle boy named Tristan!!

This book was amazing. It was hard to put down. This book is for everyone but especially for those people who feel they have a tough life. All you have to do is read about how Buffy held her son for the first time and you will be grateful for your easy life. You will be inspired. This family went through the single most difficult situation a parent can go through and came out strong. Excellent writing! She explained the situations in such detail that you felt what she was going through. Not a day goes by that I don't think about Tristan, the miracle baby, and the angel's kiss...

AN UPLIFTING STORY! by JosieKay 5 May 2007 
This book is such a compelling read! Once you start Buffy's story, you can't put the book down!! EVERYONE should read this truly amazing story of courage and love. This book isn't written just for family's who suffer the evil of cancer. It is an inspiring tale of a young woman's journey thru one of life's most tragic events - childhood cancer. BUT this is also a wonderful story for all. Everyone can see a family member or friend who has suffered some black cloud in their life, not just cancer. Read this book, spread its joy to your family, friends and co-workers. Read page one,and you can't put the book down until its finished!! Kudo's to Buffy for sharing her story with the world.

I am in total awe of you. Your journey has been an extremely hard one but you rose to all the obstacles life threw at you and over came them all. Even when doctors told you your son would not do one thing or another, you never took their word at face value. You KNEW your child and what he is capable of as ONLY a mother would know. All mothers have that dark side we will just never admit to it. You are a brave and inspiring woman! God Bless you and your family on the rest of your journey. The book was wonderfully written and the explanations of the illness were key to really understanding it fully. It was sad and witty at the same time. I loved the names for the doctors whom you did not like, and sobbed like a baby the first time you actually got to hold him. Outstanding book. Keep writing!

WOW!
