Imagine having your married daughter hospitalized in critical condition with a vague and uncertain diagnosis, and then having your husband of 40 years die suddenly of a massive heart attack. This is a warm and intriguing look at how the author dealt with the inconsolable grief of the loss of a spouse, and the desperation of supporting her daughter. There was much to appreciate in the poignant descriptions of confusion, grief, and loneliness -- as well as coping and surviving.
