I haven't read something so thought provoking and emotionally stirring in quite a while. I would like to commend Par for sharing her story. It is one that needs to be told and will help countless numbers of families.Watching a loved one waste away in your home can be traumatic. As a child I endured a similar situation with my grandma. Near the end of her life she couldn't do anything by herself. I remember helping her get dressed, eat, and go to the bathroom. And I felt Par's pain when she described doing those things with her husband.She did a remarkable job of drawing the reader in with her story. You follow her on a heartbreaking journey and at the end of it you're faced with some very important decisions. You may not think that investing in life insurance is worth it right now... that you can always worry about it later. You'd be wrong and Par will tell you why.I appreciated her use of storytelling, statistics, and family photos. It was highly effective and made her message hit close to home. I was very intrigued with the information she shared, especially the concept of "living benefits." With a little more elaboration on that subject, I'm sure many people will be easily convinced to invest in that particular form of life insurance.All in all, this was a beautiful book in many ways and I would recommend it to anyone.
