Christmas Eve on the Children's Unit

This suspenseful touching quirky little tale of Christmas is a fast-moving frequently shocking account of a children's crisis hospital on one Christmas Eve. This one night of the year has a mysterious power from millennia of pre-Christian harvest festivals and ancestor worship when ghosts walked and admonished us to love our neighbor and give to those who suffer most in a time of plenty. Adopted by Christianity but celebrated by all this is a time embraced by family to feel safe and loved especially for children and teenagers. The children's crisis unit and its staff provide a safety net for abused neglected and traumatized children and teens. This little novella is a modern look at these issues at some children's harsh reality directly confronting the age-old question of if God is good why are bad things allowed to happen on a night when the whole world seems warm and fuzzy except for some unlucky children and teens who need the Children's Unit and staff and the healing power of Christmas.
