Meet Charmaine Castillo, a mom whose life was devastated by the news that her 32 year old son, Curtis, died of injuries sustained in an altercation on August 9, 2017.

Learn how she became an author in the aftermath at the age of 62, with her latest publication, From Grief to Gratitude, a 25 day Christian devotional having been released on October 25, 2023.
