"Diagnosed with ALS, fiercely independent Mattie can't navigate her beloved home or go for a boat ride, and she can barely even feed herself. Her devoted husband, Don, can't imagine life without his wife of nearly fifty years, but Mattie isn't likely to make it past their anniversary. Then Mattie's new caretaker, Rose, and her young daughter enter their lives. Happiness and the possibility for new memories return. Together they form a family, and Mattie is able to pass on her memories from the hope chest she received from her mother."--Publisher description. |
