When Tony Stewart’s wife, Lynn, receives a sudden and devastating diagnosis, they scramble to find effective treatment, navigate life-threatening setbacks, learn to live fully in the shadow of death, and, ultimately, to share the intimate grace of her final departure from this world. After Lynn’s death, with the help of friends old and new, Tony slowly climbs out of his shattering grief and, surprisingly, eases toward new love. Adapted from more than a decade of posts on CaringBridge.org that chronicled his odyssey, both at Lynn’s side and afterward, he shares an honest, passionate, life- affirming tale about the full circle of life and death, one that offers a deeply intimate look at grief and its hopeful aftermath. He has made award-winning films for colleges and universities, written computer software that received rave reviews, designed a grants-management application that was used by three of the five largest charities in the world.
