This is a pretty raw memoir from Mark Raphael Baker, which he writes about his family and his beloved wife of 33 years Kerryn. He gives a picture of their family life , how they met, how their parents relationships affected their experiences, how they fell in love and their plans for the future. When Kerryn is diagnosed with stomach cancer he helps her to navigate the ten months until her death. It is a book about not only grieving, but about living your life to the end, about still making plans and helping your family to be able to continue on without you on. He talks about dying, death and how all of our lives change in ebbs and flows over our lives, but primarily this is a book about love and family. 4/5

It must have been very hard for the author to write this book, but it may have been necessary, as well.
