Her son, John Fish, is a bright young boy growing up in an average American town, going to school, playing with his brother and walking his dogs on the beach each day.

Review
Margaret Thompson’s Finding Color in the Darkness is a report from the front lines of the battle against mental health disorders. Her son, John Fish, is a bright young boy growing up in an average American town, going to school, playing with his brother and walking his dogs on the beach each day. He grows into adolescence and slowly a dark sky seems to settle over him; he is complicated, sensitive and growing more silent every day.

His mother knows disaster is looming but her attempts to reach her son go unrecognized and this page-turning memoir reaches its devastating conclusion. Too late, John is enveloped in a love he seemed never able to reach as his family and friends gather to say their goodbyes.

The loss is huge, incomprehensible, and the author and her surviving son must move forward, honoring John and working through the pain. His mother contacts psychics and seers in hopes of making contact. She sets aside all her other goals to write this book and dedicates herself to educating the public about the physical aspects of mental issues, including its potential as a deadly disease.

At the end of this part of her journey, Margaret Thompson concludes there is no one and nothing to blame; there is only the love she has for her lost son.

"Margaret embodies the soul of a messenger of truth, so needed in these difficult modern times. This under investigated subject of mental health issues and suicide is a necessary talk we must have. Unfortunately, this is a challenge which many families face. Margaret shares new ways to discover and to help those facing their pain and discomfort. She moves us to remember our divine soul gift of light. A truly soul filling and purposeful healing and informative read."- Sheryl Glick author of A New Life Awaits: Spirit Guided Insights to Support Global Awakening
