Seven Days In Hospice
"This little book is a gem... The detail of Wilmes’ observation
is admirable and his interpretation of the emotional responses insightful.
This book will provide helpful support to anyone whose loved one has a
terminal illness and comes under the care of hospice."
Dr.
Roger Woodruff, Director of Palliative
Care, Austin Health, Melbourne, Australia
“From the first page
I could not put it down. The
book is beautiful. It is simple, real, heartfelt… you have shown others
a way to navigate the road all of us will travel.”
Barbara
Karnes RN, Author of Gone
From My Sight,
My Friend I Care,
A Time To Live
and The Final Act of Living.
Wilmes’ writing is poignant and fervent. “Seven Days of
Hospice: A Memoir” is a book I can highly recommend to anyone whose
loved one is afflicted with terminal cancer. It offers hope,
comfort, and vital information that will possibly save heartache and
frustration during those final precious days of the life of their
loved one.

Gone But Not
Forgotten: A Christmas Story
"A very
enjoyable ghost story set at Christmastime to bring the spirit of the
season around to a family that had almost forgotten the meaning of
being together."
Gone But Not
Forgotten: A Christmas Story
earns Readers Choice from iUniverse on November 6, 2005!
“Mr.
Wilmes has penned a book that the reader will not soon forget. His
characters are real and believable. With attention to detail and vivid
descriptions, you are drawn into the book that not once wanes in
keeping your attention. Reading this book gave me chills and will
forever touch my heart. Don’t wait till Christmas to read it!"

"This
delightful book bears a similar message to the Cats in the Cradle
syndrome. The ending, though, is different. The plot is well-planned
and well executed. I can also see this book turned into a Christmas
movie. Yes, the story is set at Christmas time, and to great effect.
The inner turmoil of Clay is so great, one doesn’t realize the
Christmas aspect until the end of the book. But lest I say too much,
and ruin the story, I’ll leave it at that."
John
L. Hoh Jr., Senior Editor, BookIdeas.com
“Unforgettable! What a
wonderful book! The author perfectly sets the scene of rural Missouri,
yet the story has relevance for anyone who has ever found their
relationships strained by the demands of modern life. I found myself
identifying and empathizing with the realistically drawn characters.
Yes, I did cry at the end. This moving, elegant story can easily
become a family Christmas tradition.”
Sherri
Richardson, Author of Bones of Contention.
“This enjoyable tale offers a very introspective look at the lives
most people lead and at relationships with family, and in particular,
how in today’s world, priorities can become lost in the daily
grind.”
