About the Book

John & Deirdre Capodanno had been married for five years and were the doting parents of two beautiful, happy and healthy sons, Jay, age two, and Charlie, who was just shy of six-months old.  Life was good: they had a strong marriage, solid careers, a comfortable home, and a beautiful little family created out of love.  Then the sky fell in.  In an instant, their life together was turned upside down with the discovery that Charlie had a massive brain tumor. Further diagnosis would uncover a rare form of brain and spine cancer that would more than likely take his precious life far too soon. 

 

This inspiring story of love, devotion, perseverance and survival takes you on the emotional roller coaster ride the Capodanno family endured as they valiantly fought to save their child’s life. It’s about how one child defied incredible odds and the invaluable life lessons learned through this life-changing experience.  It will renew your faith as you witness a true miracle unfold.

 

Hope, Faith and Charlie empower anyone facing a life-threatening challenge and will assure you that when all you have on your side is your own courage, a tiny bit of hope and your faith, you have everything you need.
