When You Add Up Life

By: Carol E. Anderson

This book was inspired by a holiday visit to my dearest, oldest friend, who summoned my partner and me on Christmas Day, her sister ill and dying of bone cancer. I could hear the ache in her voice and feel the fear in her heart as I hung up the phone. I could sense, under the strength she portrayed, a longing to collapse in the arms of friends who could hold the weight and the silence of death and life as part of the whole.
