It is a beautiful illustration of the difference a close and powerful relationship with God can make in a person's life in times of tragedy. "Many people would have understandably given up and become too depressed to advance, numerous times along the way, during a journey like the one Dawn has made in her life. The fact that she did everything in her power and stood strong in the face of opposition, to help others avoid the tragedy she has suffered, attests to the fact that she selflessly chose to put her faith in God and submit to His will, rather than give in to despair, as most of us would have done. And in return, he has blessed her with a peace and joyful strength that radiates from deep within her, and that she has now been able to share with others.  This book is for those who are enduring seemingly inexplicable suffering, as well as those whose faith in God is experiencing a shake-up. Dawn's testimony will undoubtedly move and inspire everyone who is blessed to read it.” Lisa Sommers, - Wisconsin, Testimonial Excerpt "POPE JOHN PAUL II DECLARED the year 2000 a Year of Jubilee for the Catholic Church. At the age of thirty four, this year did not bring for me the joyous celebration that I, who was born and baptized as a Catholic, had hoped for. Instead, it reigned in the complete opposite. On March 18, during the Catholic season of Lent, I would experience my very own “way of the cross” when my only son, Nathaniel Joseph, died by way of a most tragic set of circumstances. The story I tell is not one I had ever wanted to write. Putting pen to paper ushered in for me a tsunami of tears that at times caught me off guard. I write in the hopes that out of my experience the reader may gain a greater appreciation for the prectious gifts each has in his or her own life. It is a story about good verses evil. A person may not believe in the existence of evil or hell. I do. I can attest to hell because I’ve been there. Not in the “other” worldly sense, but in the harrowing expereicne of tragic loss, and in encountering individuals who had masqueraded on the side of good but who profoundly lacked an honest connection with empathy and shame. Yet I write as one who has great hope, because as much as I have been witness to serious evil, I have been blessed to experience the miraculous in both the ordinary and extraordinary circumstances of everyday life. These are the experiences I am eager to share. Out of care and concern I have taken the precaution of the names to protect the people involved." Copyright 2010/2011

"Sooner or later we all arrive at a moment in our lives that seems all too big for us. How will you deal with yours? It Doesn't End Here will prepare you for that moment when it comes. This is a message of incredible light in the midst of all consuming darkness."

Fr. Donald Calloway, MIC, Marian House of Studies, Steubenville, Ohio
“Struggling to find meaning out of the unimaginable circumstances that lead to her son’s tragic death, Dawn Marie strove daily to put back together the shattered remains of her life one second at a time. Six months into the journey of her great torment Dawn’s mother hands her a newspaper article which lead to a discovery that would dramatically alter her life and the lives of many others.

In this true story of pain and sorrow is found an amazing love of a mother for her son and an enduring faith in an ever present loving God.”



Roy Schoeman, best selling author Salvation Is From The Jews and Honey From The Rock
"A heart wrenching story of a mother's transcendent love for her young son, and the faith which enabled her to survive his tragic death. There is a lot to be learned from this moving narrative: about spiritual warfare, about the callousness of the pharmaceutical industry and its legal apparatus, about the role of faith and prayer in sustaining our lives, and most of all about how the Blessed Virgin Mary, in the suffering she endured at the foot of the Cross, makes it possible for us, too, to bear our crosses.”
