Still Missing Max: Finding Hope After My Marine Son's Death - Revised Expanded Edition to be published by Veteran Publisher
S For Story/10261040
Advance copies NOW available only from The Campaign - Official release soon!
DENVER - June 9, 2016 - s4story -- Missing Max is a compelling story of one mother's journey as Julie recalls the extraordinary events surrounding the death of her Marine son, Corporal Max W. Donahue, who was killed in Afghanistan in August 2010. You will share her despair, fears, tears and finally, her hope as Julie moves through the days and months following word of Max's injury, and then his death.
Missing Max is a must-read for anyone who has lost a loved one. It encourages the reader to live a life focused on making their lost loved-one proud. Julie writes of moving through the grieving process and, through her faith and the love of family and friends, begins the healing process and going forward with her life.
Julie's hope in writing Max's story is that it will provide strength, hope, courage and faith to those who need it. And she hopes that Max, and all fallen soldiers, will never be forgotten.
Still Missing Max: The Expanded Version tells of the intimate way God carried Julie through the years following Max's death. Even if the reader doesn't share her faith, most won't dispute that something miraculous was and is occurring.

She lost her son, a Marine dog handler I feature in Soldier Dogs, to an IED in Afghanistan.

She has been through so much, and is a true inspiration, whatever your religious views. This mom of a hero is a hero herself."
