Publisher's Synopsis
Linda Burhan's book is filled with humor and heartfelt inspiration to aide anyone facing the challenge of caring for a loved one at the end of life. Her story offers us hope for human strength and understanding of weaknesses during a difficult time. From the altar of God's House, the monsignor proclaimed, "Jo McCauley was a force of nature!"

Instead, she announced she was moving to Florida to be near Linda "because, out of all the kids, you make me laugh the most." And Linda did, while caring for her mother through times of joy and times of pain as Jo's life on Earth came to a close ...
