I shall ask and try to answer two questions about this book: why was it written, and why should we read it?
Judy writes a brave and detailed account of her life, covering the sudden serious illness of her husband Russ, and his death after just seven years of marriage. She was left with the care of her two young daughters, and we learn what that meant for a bereaved young mother.
