At age 58, Jennifer Siefert's mother was diagnosed with corticobasal syndrome: a rare, progressive brain disease similar to early-onset Alzheimer's.

Told through thirty-eight poems and accompanying reflections, it takes the reader on an intimate journey beyond bereavement.

This full-hearted book shows that hope can coexist with the heartache of loss.
