Produktbeschreibung
In Four Fridays with Christina: Friendship, Death, and Lessons Learned by Letting Go, author Cynthia Barlow explores the nature of life, love, loss, and letting go, inspired by the passing of a dear friend taken by cancer. Barlow travels from her home in Toronto, Canada to Boca de Tomatlan, Mexico, where she spent five winters, and spends four weeks cooking bacon, directing and limiting visitor traffic, giving Christina an anchor to real life as she prepares to leave it. As much as Barlow gives to her adopted big sister, Christina gives back in spades as the author finds a new window and different light shining right into her own soul. Four Fridays with Christina is full of gripping moments, laugh-out-loud reflections, and sassy insights as Barlow chronicles her friend's precious final days and her own perceptions on finding purpose within pain. Bold and insightful, tender and lighthearted, Four Fridays with Christina will take you through the small delights and big decisions, the painful boundaries and celebratory bowel movements, the massive closet clean-out and the final goodbyes on the road to peace. An uplifting story that honors the four Fridays Cynthia spent with her friend and all the profound moments in between, Four Fridays with Christina will leave you feeling more invigorated about life itself-and more grateful for it.
