This book is about the resurrecting power of hope. By choosing hope in the face of hopelessness, life in the face of death, we summon a great strength from deep within ourselves, a mysterious power we didn't even know we had.

There are no easy-fixes, no shortcuts, and no workarounds. The only way to "get through it" is to "go through it". But if you take only one thing away from this book, let it be this: You never have to go through it alone.
