Thanks to NetGalley, the publisher and Ruth Fitzmaurice for the opportunity to read and review this book.
This is the story of Ruth, a young mother of 5, whose husband is stricken with Motor Neurone Disease (ALS). He can communicate only with his eyes using a computer. But instead of focusing on the disease, this is more of a letter on how Ruth copes with the diagnosis and her life. By finding her tribe - the people and the places that nurture her spirit - she is able to continue forward.
The book was written in a different style and it was somewhat confusing to shift in time the way it did, but it allowed us to see all the love and joy Ruth and Simon experienced in their life before MND and how she struggled to keep that alive. Takes brave souls.
