In 2012, entrepreneur Robert Shearer and his wife Melissa sold their company, Shearer Foods, so that they could spend their golden years together. But after just two idyllic years with friends, family and their beloved horses, Melissa was diagnosed with uterine cancer.
Still reeling from the news, the couple decided early to face the challenge like they would any other: as a team. Their journey together ended when Melissa died eight years later, but not before their profound love deepened to help Robert transform his grief into gratitude.
That love story is the inspiration for We Were Better Together, an informative and moving guide to caregiving for couples facing cancer. Through heartfelt letters, practical tips and expert advice sections, the book offers:
-First-hand caregiving, support and coping skills to lift one another's spirits
-Expert advice from therapists, oncologists, insurance experts and clergy members
-Practical guidance on estate planning, palliative care and hospice services
-Compassionate insights on embracing gratitude, navigating grief and more
Both an all-inclusive, how-to guide to navigating cancer and a grieving husband's elegy for his lost love, We Were Better Together is an essential resource for couples facing a cancer diagnosis as well as a much-needed beacon of resilience and hope.
