Kathryn Anne Casey is a published author, journalist, farmer-florist, home-educator, former life coach and prevention specialist, wife of 12 years, and mother of five children here on earth and four in Heaven (three by miscarriage and one stillborn caused by anencephaly).

She is the author of Journey in Love: A Catholic Mother’s Prayers after Prenatal Diagnosis and Peace in Pregnancy: Devotions for the Expectant Mother. She is a journalist and regular columnist for the Hughson Chronicle & Denair Dispatch. Kathryn writes on topics related to masculinity/femininity and gender issues, psychology, grief, pregnancy, prenatal diagnoses, motherhood, parenting children with unique medical needs, and how to balance a life that requires all of these to coexist peacefully.

Kathryn grew up in Hughson, CA, lived briefly in Minnesota and Virginia before returning home with her husband and firstborn to be near family. When her son, Peter was hospitalized in 2016, life began to look radically different and every step since then is an act finding God’s will in the small events of the day-to-day. Kathryn now lives just outside Hughson on an acre of land with her husband, children, cats, chickens, turkeys and flowers.
