Profile

My hometown:
I live on Vancouver Island, which is described as God's country and rightly so.
My books:
Stories for a Stormy Night, Vol. 1 & II. Each consists of two novellas, which are intended for Young Adults.

My most recent work is a memoir, titled "God's Gift."
In it, I recount how we overcame insurmountable odds as we dealt with the medical, behavioral, and learning difficulties that my son, Shaun, exhibited.

In reading this book, the reader will be drawn into our struggles and tribulations, and will come away having gained valuable insights into areas such as behavior modification, temper tantrums, dietary concerns, night-bottle syndrome, scoliosis, Reye's syndrome, Stickler's syndrome, and so much more.

What people are saying...

Mario S. Fedele has written a story not only about the challenges of raising a child with special healthcare needs, but a story of family life and the everyday tests each of us face as we make this journey through life.

I just finished "God's Gift." It was great! I laughed. I cried.... I thoroughly enjoyed it. You should be very proud of your work!

I read God's Gift in one sitting! I really enjoyed it. I felt so drawn into your life...like I was a fly on the wall so to speak.
I'm even using some of your ideas for my non special needs 8 year old for whom all other traditional methods of discipline have failed!
Kudos to you!!
Christy Prescott

I really did enjoy "God's Gift" - and completed it all in one sitting! I would recommend "God's Gift" - not just for people dealing with a child with limitations - but to anyone who has ever felt sorry for themselves.
Josephine Odierno

"God's Gift" is one of faith, hope, and endurance. It's a marvelous resource for parents who are experiencing serious problems of their own.
Vicki P. Bowman

If you enjoy stories of families that are dealing with children with special needs, then this book should not be missed!
Karen Fidler

"God's Gift" has so much to offer and will make an impact on whoever reads it. Some of the helpful strategies used in the book would be beneficial for anyone.
C S Richard

"God's Gift" is a wonderful write. It has meaning and love, so much of what the world is lacking. What a blessing Mr. Fedele has bestowed us.
Teresa Genot

"God's Gift" is awesome!! I was overwhelmed and filled with admiration when I got to the end of the story!!
Tessie Chapman

"God's Gift" was such a treat to read. I found it so fascinating that I was sad when it was over. This book should be in all school libraries for all children to read or have read to them.
Bessie Harvey

Mr. Fedele: I finished your book! I thoroughly enjoyed it, and I was humbled by your stamina, courage and devotion....am somewhat envious that you retired at 38!!!
Rita Laurendeau

I really enjoyed reading your book, "God's Gift."
It is a true testament that "Love conquers all."

God's Gift - synopsis

I had no clue in how to raise a child and engaged in the endeavor as well I could. The task would have been daunting enough had our baby been healthy, but with the medical problems that ensued, the challenge became frightfully overwhelming. In reading this book, the reader will be drawn into our struggles and tribulations, and will come away having gained valuable insights i Continue

Thank you for the kind words you offer.

Mario:

I certainly meant it. Books about children, & making it better for children in whatever ways we come upon, ARE important. They are--as corny as it may sound--definitely our future!

Blessings -- Linda
