Title: Bitter or better
Description: "In her op-ed column, and as an inspirational speaker, Caryn Sullivan shares parts of her own struggles and the struggles of others who have been forced to navigate some of life's most unexpected, unwelcome, and bitter twists and turns. Her writing offers hope and insight into how the human spirit inexplicably allows us to persevere against all odds. In Bitter or Better, she shares the stories behind the stories--everything from raising a child with autism, managing life-threatening medical crises within her family, fighting breast cancer, to becoming a widow. For anyone touched by a life-changing loss, illness, or disability, or who may be a friend to someone who has known tragedy, Bitter or Better illustrates how one person can make a difference. With compassion and humor, Sullivan reminds us that, in the face of any challenge to the human spirit, we each have a choice as we navigate life's tempests."--Cover flap.
