A must read. As an RN and fellow griever from losing my baby sister to cancer I feel so moved by this book. Deborah’s story of Brittany’s life and death should be required reading for every health practitioner. This book is honest and sad; inspirational and important; heart wrenching and uplifting... all at once.

has its good and bad points. i followed brittany's story when it was in the news a couple years ago. i was a bit conflicted at first about reading the book after brittany's husband claimed it was written against her wishes, but i decided to give it a go. i found the book to be very entertaining; i love reading about people's real lives and experiences, and i'm kind of a medical nerd, so the details of the disease and surgery and whatnot were fascinating to me. deborah is a great writer, and the book was difficult to put down. what was also difficult a large part of the time was feeling any sympathy or positive feelings toward brittany. i realize that she had terminal brain cancer at a young age, but...the girl was a bit of a jerk sometimes. her mother told of one instance in which brittany got angry because deborah and gary asked her to refrain from discussing less-than-appetizing topics at the dinner table. brain tumor or not, why would you think anyone desired or was obligated to talk about gross/unsettling matters while trying to eat? i don't know if deborah realized it as she was writing, but she painted her daughter in a rather unflattering light. brittany seems to have been a very independent, headstrong woman at best...and a spoiled brat who thought the world should bow at her feet at worst. she actually reminded me of kim kardashian at times...never really worked a day in her life, but still got just about all of her heart's desires. she travelled the world (even leaving her husband for a large part of their first year of marriage...who does that?) attended prestigious colleges, lived in upscale housing...you get the idea. i don't doubt that deborah and brittany loved each other...but after reading this book, i don't doubt that brittany dreaded the idea of her mother telling her story, either. overall, it was a good read.

A VERY ANGRY MOM N DAUGHTER STORY. Bottom line, Brittany's mom spend 90% of her book telling you how horrendous Brit was all her life. Of course, after her the age years she blames her evil acting 20s as the tumor growing fault. I was so excited for this book, I. Was such a strong believer in Brittany's plight. After reading this book, I don't like Brittany at all, if any of th book was the truth. Her mother ad oral is a drama queen to the 10th power. I can't imagine having a parent write such a horrific book about how crappy their child was a life. If you want to be put in a really bad and sad mood--- read this memoir. I would imagine Brittany would want to literally never want any on to read this. Deborah only finds real peace after Brittany is long gone ---a really sad mother daughter family dynamic

Worth the read!. I gave this book five stars, not because of literary qualities, but because it spoke to my heart. I had recently heard about the book and rumors that Brittany did not want her mother writing it. This peeked my curiosity. I wanted to know more. Why didn’t Brittany want her mother writing her story? Why did her mother write a book anyway? After finishing the book, my questions have been answered. I commend this mother for listening to her intuition and doing what felt right for her in her processes of grief and spiritual healing. I feel certain that Brittany, in whatever form she is now, supports her mother, understands the place the writing of this book had in her mother’s healing, and no longer cares about her earthy reasons for not wanting a book to be written. For me, this book has entered my life with uncanny timing in my own discovery of grief and spirituality. We are love. We are one.
