Worth Fighting For - Love Loss And Moving Forward

Product Description

Details: Lisa Niemi & Patrick Swayze first met as teenagers at his mother's dance studio. He was older & just a bit cocky; she was the gorgeous waif who refused to worship the ground he walked on. It didn't take long for them to fall in love. Their thirty-four year marriage -- which they explored together in The Time of My Life -- was a uniquely passionate partnership. Now, for the first time, Lisa will share what it was like to care for her husband as he battled Stage IV pancreatic cancer, & will describe his last days when she simply tried to keep him comfortable. She writes searingly about her grief in the aftermath of Patrick's death, & candidly discusses the challenges that the past fourteen months without him have posed. But while this is an emotionally honest & unflinching depiction of illness, death, & loss, it is also a hopeful & life-affirming exploration of the power of the human spirit. Lisa shows that no matter how dark the prospect of another day may seem, there are always reserves of strength to call upon, & the love shared between two people will never truly die. Ideal for: any fan of Patrick Swayze or anyone who has lost a loved one through cancer. This paperback book has 321 pages & measures: 19.9 x 12.9 x 2.1cm
