Staying Alive: A Love Story

Staying Alive: A Love Story is a memoir of loss and recovery about the author’s search for meaning after the untimely death of her 49-year-old husband. Told with the grit and wit of a true survivor, her and her children’s experience through more than ten years may be considered a quiet triumph and touchstone for anyone who has suffered – or will suffer – great loss. Called a beautiful reminder of what really matters, the book has been named one of the three top memoirs of 2011 by Reader Views and was nominated for the 2012 CSPA Book of the Year in the Christian Living category. The American Institute of Health Care Professionals recently noted, bereavement counselors can also learn how a person finds strength in writing about his or her own loss from these stories.
