Susan Schoenberger
I could not put this book down. The friendship between Vivian and Holly was so touching and extraordinary. Funny how close they both were really never knew each others struggles until almost the very end.Holly was a widow raising two boys and trying to keep things afloat with house payments and struggling. Her mother had helped her keep her house and when the unthinkable happens her mother suffers a heart attack and never really recovers. Her siblings decide to place her in a nursing home where all her savings will be drained. Thats when the siblings find out she has been helping Holly all along. They were angry because they were having their own problems. And could of used some help also.
Vivian living in the iron lung was my hero. She fought her battles with her conditions from contracting polio at an early age. She fought every step of the way to make a livable life for herself but in the end she just could not do it anymore. What these two friends do for one another is what real friendship and loyalty and love is about. This a must read . I cried a few times.I will definitely be reading more of Susan Schoenberger's books.
