Jan was an outstanding teacher who inspired students and teachers alike until multiple sclerosis forced her to retire. In this poignant memoir, Jan's filmmaker husband relates the story of her journey through life and how it was shaped by things both large and small. He recounts how they chose each other to share their future, taking the reader beyond the wedding and "happily ever after" moment to portray their love story to its end. Though Jan's illness is present, this is not a book about her disease, but rather about a well-lived life, with a sad but uplifting ending.
