In her second book, Heather Lende takes us on an emotional journey. Being the obituary writer for her local newspaper in Alaska, she is well versed in the emotions of life and death. However, it became personal when she was in a near-fatal accident, literally run over by a truck. To add to her pain, she lost her mother to leukemia a year later.
Confined to bed, Heather reflected on life, death, and everything in-between. What came of it all is this beautifully miraculous book. Heather turns once again to her neighbors, friends and community. There she finds strength to focus on faith and spirituality and from that there is growth and eventually healing.

While Heather Lende was literally hit by a truck, we've all had our own version of disaster that comes out of no where and knocks us flat. Heather recounts the physical, mental, and spiritual struggle back to equilibrium. Her warm and poignant telling of her journey reminds the reader what is really important in life.
