Description
A remarkable account of illness, loss and the power of sibling love is revealed in this moving and uplifting book. Clare Wise's reflections on compassion fatigue are particularly noteworthy, offering valuable insights into her journey. Based on her blog, which she started when diagnosed with cancer in 2013, Not That Kind of Love charts the highs and lows of the last three years of Clare's life. As she becomes too weak to type, her brother takes over, transforming the book into a beautiful meditation on life and the necessity of talking about death. This book is not just a description of a journey to death, but also a celebration of the act of living. With its candour, warmth and spirit, it should be read by everybody. Clare Wise's positivity and energy shine through every page, making this an inspiring and profoundly uplifting read.
