"Byrd's memoir almost reads like a suspenseful novel, and readers are sure to be gripped by the possible explanations she provides for (her son's) seemingly inexplicable memories. She also thoughtfully reflects on her own spirituality, and the ways in which her son's revelations challenged her Christian faith . . . On the whole, this is an affecting portrayal of parenthood, and an affectionate love letter from a mother to her unusual child. An eclectic mix of mystery, memoir, and the supernatural."

"Meeting Christian and Cathy Byrd and doing a past-life regression with them both allowed me to witness for myself the extraordinary life story of Lou Gehrig and Mom Gehrig. I fell in love with Christian and Cathy, and you will too as you dive into this riveting account of their adventure exploring reincarnation and the deeper truth that love always brings us together life after life. As a result of our work, Christian no longer has asthma and Cathy is fulfilling her soul's purpose in opening people's minds to the truth of our eternal existence. After I left their home, I immediately called my friend Dr. Wayne Dyer, and with awe and contagious enthusiasm I shared their story with him. I know that as soon as you turn the last page of this exceptional book, you too will be passionately sharing Christian's and Lou Gehrig's story with everyone and carrying the light of their soul in your heart."
