What makes Amy's case compellingly unique is that she is one of a group of professional, educated, resourceful strong and optimistic women who rally around her. They place their names on a master spreadsheet to take turns spending days at a time sharing Amy's hospital room. They leave their very busy personal and corporate lives to ..do whatever Amy needs done. And because she is very ill she requires so much care and encouragement. While frightened, overwhelmed and exhausted each friend puts her heart and soul into high gear mode. From mundane tasks of distracting Amy with outrageously cheerful room decor, or silly, girly gifts, or sending status emails to the email distribution list, helping her wash her thick hair, to deep heart-felt talks, to massaging her to relieve her pain. All these female companions do this and more out of the strong bonds of friendship, respect, care and love.
Amy acknowledges her deep gratitude with being blessed with many sister angels.
Well-written; Intelligent, inspirational and meaningful read.… (más)
