Book Cover & Preview Text
“Out of Darkness” is the story of my son, Michael, and the grief we suffered due to our loss. Nothing can be more painful to a mother than to lose a child who is dearly loved.
Michael’s passing had a huge impact on our family and friends. I could not accept that my precious son was gone. We all worked hard to move on, but nothing could stop the pain. Through the years my depression and guilt worsened until I was able to face the truth and receive my healing. Michael was dead and he took his own life.
When I first started writing this book, it was to help others with their pain, not fully understanding the healing it would bring for me and my family. Sharing the story of Michael has been the most effective therapy for us all. Now we can talk about him again and remember the good along with the bad. By sharing his story, we now have our joy and peace back. It has been a long journey. My hope is that it will help others to stop and think before making a decision to give up on life.
Tomorrow is a new day and where there is life, there is hope.

About the Book
Out of Darkness
Until you decide to deal with the pain, it sits inside of you like a cancer and devours your soul. It paralyzes you to the point that your life is not worth living.
My sunshine has left. I am dying inside. My world is dark and dreary.
This was my life for eight long years after my son, Michael, committed suicide. I finally got the courage to face the truth and heal my wounds. Sharing my pain was the hardest thing I have ever done. But it will be worth it, if it inspires someone to have hope for a better day.
About the Author
Diane Mobley continues to reside in the same Fayetteville, North Carolina, neighborhood in which she grew up. She spends much of her time with dear family and friends and loves to speak to others about suicide prevention when given the opportunity. Her number one priority in life is to prevent suicide by reaching out to others. She has often said, “I have never met a stranger … No matter where I go, I make new friends. If writing this book can either heal or save one life from suicide, then the painful journey of reliving the horrific events of that October 1994 morning will be worth it.”
