Rent Future Widow: Losing My Husband, Saving My Family, and Finding My Voice

Synopsis

I don't want to scare you, said the primary care doctor. But you need to see the neurosurgeon. Tomorrow. Jenny Lisk had no idea what was coming. At forty-three, she had a lot going on. A full-time job. Two young kids. A home to manage. And suddenly--a husband with inoperable brain cancer. How could this be her life? In between surgeries, ER visits, thousands of pills, and ultimately, hospice at home, Jenny kept her corner of the world updated through a CaringBridge online journal, and found strength through a community that rallied to her side. She needed it. Because she felt totally lost every time she thought about the future she never saw coming: parenting grieving children, and rebuilding some sort of life for three--out of four--members of her family. You'll love this poignant memoir because it's heartbreakingly honest, and ultimately hopeful. Get it now. Readers Say: "Captivating." "Couldn't put it down." "An honest and hopeful read."
