To lose one child to an illness is
terribly painful, but to lose four sons to rare blood diseases is more than
most parents can even imagine. Gwendolyn S. McNutt and Henry L. McNutt Sr.
have suffered this great loss and write about their trials in the book
"Angels Never Die" (published by AuthorHouse - http://www.authorhouse.com).
Having grown up in a strict religious family, Gwendolyn finally got her heart's desire, her knight in shining armor. Gwendolyn Smith and Henry
McNutt met at the town fair -- it was nothing short of love at first sight.
After getting married, Gwendolyn figured life would only get better. Little
did she know that she and Henry would combine the same mutated recessive
genes and pass them along to their children.
Not long after Laverne, their oldest daughter, was born, Gwendolyn became pregnant again. This turned out to be their first son, and he was
named Henry Jr. Around his first birthday unexplained swollen lymph nodes
became visible all over his body. It signaled the beginning of the terror
of darkness that would repeatedly engulf the McNutt family.
In the course of only a few years, Adam, Randall and Carl were born. Each boy showed signs of something being wrong, and finally, after several
trips to the hospital, an explanation came. Gwendolyn's boys were diagnosed
with two rare blood disorders, Fanconi anemia and Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome.
In "Angels Never Die," Gwendolyn takes readers on a journey of these fatal diseases as they claimed the lives of her boys. She reveals the
agony, the fight for faith and the pain of living as she watched her sons
fight for survival. The legacy of her boys -- from their faith in God to
their courage against a disease with no known cure -- will bring hope and
understanding to other parents facing the illness of a child. The McNutts
urge couples to take advantage of advances in genetic testing.
"Angels Never Die" is a testament of a faithful God even in the midst of disaster and the peace He can provide even when all hope is gone.
Before retiring to write this book, Gwendolyn McNutt split her time between caring for her four sons and two daughters and working at an
organization she established, Reaching Our Community Kids (ROCK), which
gives children encouragement and the love of a family. She and Henry are
both Arkansas natives. "Angels Never Die" is their first book.
