Review: This well written thought provocating book is written beautifully from the heart. Not only is it a book about extreme unimaginable loss but is also a story of strength and love under undue circumstances. Marilyn Azevedo epitomizes a mothers unconditional love for her child and the length this mother went to keep him living among us. She articiulates succintly the battles patients, families, health care providers are raging with this unjust disease CANCER. Kudoos to her in her first literary masterpiece. My only regret is that Andy cannot share in this incredible achievement.

Summary: A gift from Azevedo
Review: When trajedy strikes, many people draw deeper into themselves. A few rare individuals will allow their emotion to be given as a gift to others in similar turmoil. In clear and blazingly honest language, Marilyn Azevedo shares her experiences as a way of making others feel less alone. Anyone who has suffered loss will benefit from this book, as well as anyone who has ever fought a valiant fight against that which can't be overpowered.

This is a beautifully written and worthwhile book, hearbreaking and uplifting in equal measures.
