Dying Well by Susan Ducharme Hoben is a story about Susan and her husband. How they fight with cancer, and what comes next. I think this is a realisation of the value of life. Thanks for the free copy.

I love this book. Reading it also gives me some insight on this brain tumour. However, it's good to read about this book as it tells me now, how people that go through such health problem, feel about themselves and how people like us would understand their circumstances. Also the cure is to live to the best of the quality of life and not really the quantity of life. Something for me that I have just learn. High recommend this book for many people to read.

I love the quote, “Life is short. Smile while you still have teeth.” What a wonderful attitude to have in the face of adversity. This sounds like a very powerful and fantastically moving story. I can’t wait to read it.

Dying Well is a heartbreaking true story of a family facing the death of a loved one. How do we face death? This gives an inspirational viewpoint on the subject. Congratulations to the author for being chosen as BOTD. Thanks to the reviewer for your honest and interesting review.

Your review made me feel like I was talking about the book with you. Fantastic! Susan and Bruce's story is a powerful memoir. A reminder that even in the bleakest of times, we can find a silver lining. We should celebrate those we love even when they are no more.

I am looking forward to reading this novel about the emotional rollercoaster of finding out you have cancer and going into remission. To celebrate with happiness only to find out your husband has an aggressive form just diagnosed. The depression and the worries happen again which is how life evolves.

This true story will help me emotionally as I was suddenly a widow at age 47. My husband died of a massive heart attack at age 49. It will teach me how others have dealt with their lives during tough times life sometimes brings.

From a sampling, this seems like an interesting and emotional memoir surrounding the author's life and her family's struggle with cancer. It is a very emotional book that would be perfect for avid readers of memoirs. Well done.

A couple who faces the severe cancer pathway sounds extremely emotional, but also motivational for those who can relate to this experience. I think it will be a bit overwhelming for me. Thank you for moving review!

"Dying Well: Our Journey of Love and Loss" by Susan Ducharme Hoben is an #Emotional #Memoir of #Love, #Loss, and #Hope. Susan narrates her husband's journey of love until his way to "dying on his own terms". I gotta keep a box of tissue beside me while reading.

Thanks for the review.
