Hannah's Gift

Following is an excerpt from the book I'm reading, Hannah's Gift. The book was written by Maria Housden, the mother of Hannah, a three-year-old girl who died from cancer. In this scene, Hannah is encircled by friends and family at a "healing service."

While death is inevitable, knowing you are loved is not. When I saw Hannah's radiant face in the center of that circle, I realized that healing can happen even without a cure. No matter when Hannah died, she would die knowing that her life had mattered, that she was completely loved. I couldn't imagine a more profound healing than that.
