When (fill in the blank) is Sick Lisa Burns

"When (fill in the blank) is Sick: a child's guide to learning that someone they love has cancer" is a poetic children's book that helps children walk through the difficulties of a cancer diagnosis of someone they love. Throughout the book, the reader gets to fill in the blanks with their loved one's name, making this a personal book to help them learn and cope with the days ahead. "When (fill in the blank) is Sick" reminds us that we can find joy and hope in the Lord even in the midst of difficult times.

The final pages of this book are left empty for the reader to document joyful memories during this trying season. In years to come, hopefully the moments most remembered will be the moments filled with joy, rather than pain.
