Sensitive and shy, with a rich inner world full of golden dreams,
Susan spent her childhood relying on the grounding and guidance of
her mother's love. But when Susan was just twelve years old, her
life was broken apart in a way that would change her forever. Her
mother was diagnosed with cancer, and two years later, she left an
empty seat at the table, and an empty place in her family that
nothing else could fill. Without a center, the family began to
change; Susan's relationships with her siblings and her father
unraveled and knitted back together in an unfamiliar shape. Bereft,
disconsolate, and profoundly alone, Susan navigated adolescence as
best she could without her mother's wisdom and comfort...but the
ache of that lost love remained with her. For many years, Susan
searched for answers, but most of all, she wanted to hear someone
say, "I know what you mean. I felt that way too, when my mother
died." The years went by. She never heard those words. But now, the
feelings and experiences she kept buried for so long have found a
voice in this beautiful, transparent, and soul-searching book. This
is not just the story of Susan and her mother...it is the lyrical
elegy of the world's loss, and the humanity's heartbreak. This is
Susan's story, and it is your story.
