Publisher's Synopsis
Tragedy happens to all of us at some point in our lives. It's just a fact of life. From divorce to the death of a loved one, we will all experience emotionally painful things in our lives. By understanding a few coping strategies and how to employ them within the framework of our lives, we can put tragedy in perspective and even create our own "personal tragedy crusade". Discover the heartbreaking story of the Found family is a loving mother, Ellyn, diagnosed with terminal cancer, a beautiful teenage daughter, Caroline, killed in a freakish moped accident both buried within a fortnight. That the father, Ernie, somehow managed to courageously rise above this devastating calamity, to carry on with grace, and that the town and Carolines school and volleyball team came together to cherish the memory of the two women, is the story of unbounded love. That there is a victory in sports, as well, is but a glorious bonus. Nothing can cure the sadness, nothing can undo the horror, but what this book tells us is that even the worst tragedy can uplift us if we care enough and are unafraid to bear our hearts.
