RICHMOND, VA, USA – August 2, 2021 – After Virginia Rose, age four, died from cancer in 2015, her father, Pastor Jonathan Vandermark Jr., spent the next year struggling with her loss. Over time, as the wounds began to heal, Vandermark Jr. knew that her inspirational story would impact lives around the world and needed to be shared.
Vandermark Jr. says, “I wrote this book to help all those who have been battling. For those who feel alone, and for those who feel like all hope is gone. I wrote 9 Months to Say Goodbye: The Inspirational Story of Virginia Rose for a society desperately in need of love, and joy. Virginia Rose reminded us of and showed all how to have joy in the most unimaginable circumstances… if we only had nine months left, if we knew the end was near… how would we live?”
This book is about Virginia Rose’s nine-month battle with cancer, and how she impacted lives all around the world with her grace, love, and joy. From her diagnosis, her time at St. Jude Hospital, and her final days, the Vandermark’s had nine months to prepare for her birth, and nine months to say goodbye. This book is a must-have for people in need of hope, and a great gift for those who are in the midst of a battle right now. It encourages and inspires us as we are challenged to look at our lives and what we are doing.
Vandermark Jr. says, “I believe Virginia’s powerful story, which was shared on local and national media including the Today Show, is something powerful her journey captured the hearts of so many.” Vandermark Jr. is a down-to-earth guy, a small-town pastor, and a small homestead farmer and is overwhelmed with the support and the reviews.
“This little girl changed more lives in four years than most will do in their lifetime!” – Angela Coles
“Amazing. Her smile and giggle are forever imprinted on my heart. Thank you both for sharing your journey and being such a light and inspiration in spite of your circumstances.” – Melody Cooper
“As Virginia would say, “I have all the emotions” reading her story. Tears were flowing and I could not put it down.” – PaPa
