Then an Angel Came
SIDS ~ Their hour of darkness…became a journey into the Light
A Family’s Inspiring, True Story of Loss and Renewal
"Outstanding. Faith is something most people want but few of us want tested. In this moving story of personal loss, renewal, and faith, we see how one woman and her family find a very personal faith, yet one that can bring hope to others. This is the story of a child’s death but it is also the story of life, of grief and of moving beyond grief. Carol Gino has an unconventional gift for faith and she shares it generously."

It happened in a single moment. Their lives were changed. Their souls shaken. And then, when they were most vulnerable, their hearts opened to the miraculous…
They were a three generation Italian American family steeped in traditional values. Carol Gino’s old world father was a stern disciplinarian who loved opera and polkas; her mother a shy, tradition-bound housewife, while Carol herself had made a spiritual journey away from her Catholic roots. But nothing in the Gino family’s past could ever have prepared them for the tragedy that would change all their lives forever.
About the book:
For Carol it began with a phone call in the middle of the night; a call that brought unbearable news. Her grandchild, her daughter’s infant son, had died in his own crib of SIDS. Within hours, Carol was on a plane from California, returning home to the family who needed her more than ever.
After the initial shock, the members of Carol’s family each coped with the death in their own way. Carol’s father in stony silence, Teri’s husband with silent tears, Carol’s bereaved daughter, Teri, in rages against God. The baby’s sister, Jessie, with the innocence of a child. Then, as the family grappled with the loss, the inexplicable heartbreak of SIDS, and the need to go on with their lives, a new voice began to speak among them. It was a voice that offered answers and more questions, comfort and more challenges. It was the voice of an angel.
In this unforgettable true story, Carol chronicles the miraculous appearance of an angel named Janith who came to speak through Carol’s daughter. Meeting resistance and skepticism first, Janith slowly began to win over the grieving family as she showed them all a reality they had never before perceived, an interconnectedness that would explain the inexplicable and show a way into the future. In a remarkable series of sessions, Janith leads a shattered family through more pain and loss to the ultimate revelation, and a truly miraculous rebirth.

"As a mother, I wept as I read this story. As a mother that lost an infant son to SIDS the same as the daughter in this book, my heart was lifted and touched beyond words. I felt that I became a part of Carol and her family and I was there with the angel Janith. Tender and wonderfully written. I gained a new understanding for what my own mother must feel when dealing with me... for a grandmother the pain is two-fold.. losing a loved grand-child and seeing your own child broken, and hurt and unable to fix that. I have since read several of Carol's books... reading Nurses Story I learned more about Carol as a person and truel felt I was in touch with the author, who really touched my soul and my heart as she has surely touched many..."

"Can the pain of death be so horrific that it returns from past lifetimes to teach us to heal? Carol Gino and her fantastic Italian family find that just this happens in Then An Angel Came. When the death of a child steals over the Gino’s in the dark of night, a darkness of such depth threatens to still the beating hearts of the living. Carol and her daughter search for answers and find them in the realms of another world. The answers and the healing come crashing in upon them like the waves of an angry ocean. But it is the healing and cleansing of those very waves that bring the family to a point of karmic renewal most of us only dream of finding. For anyone who has ever loved anything and lost it, Then An Angel Came takes you through a journey of death and grief all to familiar and then into a cathartic promise of healing. Worth every tear, this book is a must read!"
"Satisfying on every level. Like Carol Gino, I am the grandmother of a baby boy who died from SIDS. She not only captures every detail of the pain suffered by various members of a family that goes through such an experience, but, better yet, shows how even this most tragic of events can have some positive outcomes in the lives of the survivors. Given the fact that Ms. Gino is a bestselling author, it is no surprise that the book reads like a novel. It will grab and hold your interest even if you have not lived through a tragedy of the magnitude of her family. There’s no need to buy into all the concepts she introduces to learn and benefit from the wisdom that this book contains. Just be open to parts that speak to you and your world view, and you won’t be sorry. And, yes, be sure to have some Kleenex at hand – just remember that if you stay with the book until the end, your tears will be rewarded."
