Siobhan's Miracle

Siobhan Kilfeather was a Belfast girl who grew up to become a university professor and world-renowned authority on English and Irish literature. In 2000, Siobhan was diagnosed with terminal cancer. She embarked on a pilgrimage to Lourdes and prayed to the Virgin Mary, asking for more time so that her children could know and remember her. On her return, doctors were amazed when an x-ray showed that the cancer in her lungs had gone. Seven years later the cancer returned, but Siobhan died peacefully. In this remarkable book, Siobhan's father-in-law, Derek Jameson, and his wife, Ellen, unfold this moving story.
