Each night, after we had settled our husbands in bed, we would chat on the phone for around 45 minutes, sharing everything that had happened during the day. Sometimes we laughed and sometimes we cried. Often we would make suggestions on how to cope with a new situation that had arisen. We both looked forward to those chats.We decided to share our experiences with other families who are currently, or who will in the near future, be facing this journey. We hope our book will be of help to you.
