2008-06-23
This book was very helpful and comforting. I lost my "Best Friend" which happen to be my Mom!! I felt I wasn't a lone going through is grieving processes. Even thu her passing has been over a year I understand now that even thu it may be a year it many take many more years to except and that is okay!! She is ALWAYS with me. Except & listen to signs 'cause they do reach out to US from beyond.. :)
Unique and reassuring when you think outside the box... 2007-12-14
I am still in the process of reading this book. I am enjoying it and the unique way it came about. It is a group of stories from different women. Every crayon in the box has contributed to this book. Red, yellow, black, white, rich, poor, middle class, etc.
I have had different "things" happen since my mother died and truly feel they are "things" she has sent to console and reassure me that I will be okay and that she is okay.
I plan to write the author with my experiences, since my mother's death, as she collects them and hopes to put together another book someday in the near future.
If you believe in psychics, mediums, and see things "outside of the box" this book is for you.
Most Wonder Book for Loss of Mother 2007-09-10
A friend told me to read this book shortly after I lost my dear mother to breast cancer. It is full of inspiring, wonderful true stories of women who lost their mothers and had signs of them being near them after passing. The most wonderful thing happened to me after I finished this book a couple of weeks after my mothers funeral. I was going to church every morning at 7 a.m. for mass every day on my way to work after she died. One morning I was sitting in my usual pew in front of the Blessed Mother statue waiting for service to begin....I looked down as I knelt to pray at the pew seat in front of me and there was a feather! It was over 3 inches long - I looked everywhere else around me - no other feathers but the one right in front of me. I believe this was a sign from my mother. Please read this book - your mother is still with you...you will always be together.
HELPED SO MUCH AFTER DEATH OF MY MOTHER 2007-06-02
I have given this book to about four of my friends whose mothers have died. It is a compilation of stories from women of all walks of life who have experienced some sort of "visit" or sign from their mothers after their mothers have passed on. It is so interesting and so comforting. It expresses what many of my friends have experienced but hadn't been talking about. Are these visits coincidences or are we living in a dream here and the world after this is the real world? It gave me great comfort and hope when my mom died, and I continue to hear from her in so many ways.. strange bird visits.. dog visits, dreams.. I cannot recommend this book enough to anyone who has lost a mother, whether they were on good terms or bad. I will continue to order this book and share it with my friends. Thanks for reading!

A very intersting book relating experiences women have had after the death of their mother.
Slow Read 2007-01-13
James Van Praagh meets Motherless Daughters in this moving collection of over 70 true stories which is now in paperback. One night, while sitting around the campfire with friends, Sinclair Browning shared the story of her actress mother, who used to warm up with breathing exercises before going on stage. Lying on her back, she'd blow a feather up in the air and repeat the phrase "I love you." For years after her mother's death, Sinclair would find white feathers in locations that defied explanation, and feels certain they were her mother's way of contacting her from beyond. That night at the campfire, other women stepped forward and told similar stories. Sinclair realized she was not alone, and the inspiration for FEATHERS BRUSH MY HEART was born. From the mother who saved her daughter from a fatal car crash by warning her in a dream to one daughter's mysterious encounter with a beautiful stranger, whom she later recognized in a family photo as her dead mom, these touching stories will turn skeptics into believers and affirm that a mother's love lives on forever.
The Cardinal 2007-01-07
I just finished reading this book and sat wondering how my mother would contact me. I love feeding the birds and began to wonder what kind of bird my mother would be if she choose to visit. A cardinal, so beautiful and bright, that's what she'd be. I'd made up my mind.
I put the book down, walked to the kitchen and stood in shock. There sat a cardinal in the lilac bush, just several feet away. I'll never forget that day.
My mother passed away 25 years ago and this was the first time I can say I truly felt her presence.
Sadly, I will now give this book to my niece. I just attended her mother's funeral. I don't want her to wait 25 years.
A great comfort for any daughter whose mother has passed over. 2007-01-04
This book was so comforting. I lost my mother 3 years ago and still search for comfort and hope. This book proves that I am not alone or crazy. It is definately a must read for anyone searching for proof of your mother's presence.
High Praise for Feathers Brush My Heart 2006-11-11
This book is a comfort and inspiration to any adult daughter who has lost her mother. It is a compilation of stories from daughters sharing how their mother's presence is still with them through signs such as a butterfly, a warm breeze, a brightly shining star and other signs. The book was given to me soon after I lost my mother. My friend lost her mother the year before. I bought another copy of the book and gave it to a co-worker when she recently lost her mother.
The book made me realize that the shining star I saw, the bird in flight who chirps as I walk in the morning are signs from my mother, telling me she is near.

I find the book to be nicely written but a little farfetched. I think some people search for things that aren't there. I lost my mother when I was fourteen and I think I have looked for signs all of my life. Maybe I am just a skeptic.
