"Anyone experiencing illness or loss will benefit from this beautiful story. The thoughtful advice woven throughout the book is something I will draw upon in the years to come. Thank you for sharing your journey Rebecca!" - Anne
I couldn't put this book down. It is so beautifully written, it feels like Becca is in front of you talking to you as a friend. To have seen glimpses of Becca and mikes love throughout high school and to read this was beautiful and heartbreaking all in one. This is such an empowering book for anyone going through grief. As someone who lost her mom to cancer, this book touched a nerve and I caught myself on many occasions saying “that’s so true”. This book will undoubtedly help many going through their grief journey. -Christine M.
By just reading the words on the page, you can feel the love between Rebecca and her late husband, Mike. This book is everything from happy moments, to the world’s most devastating moments, and Rebecca shows her true strength by sharing it with the world. I lost my father 6 years ago to lung cancer that metastasized into brain cancer- I was his primary caregiver at 26 years old, and I wish I had this to read at that time. Rebecca’s raw honesty and courage will change lives of those who are grieving someone they love.
This book is so well written it’s as if the reader is being given a front row seat to the beautifully heartbreaking story that was Rebecca and Mike’s love story. It also provides raw emotions that touches a nerve for anyone affected by cancer in their life. It empowers them to take control of their own grief story and allow themselves to heal however they feel fit. Anticipatory grief is something so many people experience when given that initial diagnosis and it’s so refreshing to read Rebecca tell her story. It’s a must read for anyone going through this journey - you are not alone! - Casey W
