Author Talk with Tasha Faruqui – November 12, 6 PM
Join us for an inspiring evening with Tasha Faruqui, author of Keep Your Head Up—a moving testament to the depth of familial love and the resilience of the human spirit in the face of childhood terminal illness.
When Tasha gave birth to her second daughter, Soraya, she knew something was wrong. Yet, despite years of medical tests yielding normal or inconclusive results, the truth became clear: science doesn’t always have the answers, and some challenges cannot be “fixed.” What remained—and what Keep Your Head Up so beautifully captures—was the ability to find joy in small moments, create community, and celebrate the beauty still within reach.
With raw honesty and heartfelt storytelling, Tasha shares her family’s journey through uncertainty, grief, and hope. She offers insight for parents and loved ones of terminally ill children, exploring how to speak truth with compassion, provide comfort through fear, and embrace life despite unimaginable odds.
This conversation will be an unforgettable reflection on love, loss, and the strength we can summon in our hardest seasons.
