Breathing Sorrow: A journey through grief and the pathway to reluctant survival - Carole-ann Baer

Descriere Breathing Sorrow: A journey through grief and the pathway to reluctant survival - Carole-ann Baer

\nCarole-Ann Baer remembers vividly the day her husband, Lee, received the devastating news he had terminal cancer and was given three to five months to live. She wondered how life could go from normal to this? How could their happy, predictable world suddenly be changing most horribly? How would she tell the kids? The family didn't invite cancer in, and now they had a permanent intruder.\n \nIn Breathing Sorrow, she shares the story of her family's journey through an illness that swallowed their lives and took away a beloved father, husband, son, brother, colleague, and friend. It's a story of emotional chaos and shattered dreams, the story of being broken, being changed, but somehow finding how to live with the most devastating sorrow imaginable. It's a story about pain, loss, and profound grief, yet somewhere embedded in all of these things, it's a story about hope.\n \nThrough Baer's personal reflections, Breathing Sorrow captures the emotional turmoil any terminal illness puts upon a family. It narrates the road of despair but also the possibility of healing through heartfelt bits of wisdom. It illustrates the possibility of hope and light.\n
