“Caring for someone you love who has a terminal illness is one of the greatest honours you can have in life. It is a truly life transforming experience.” – Mark Carrington

This book is a personal, frank and honest account of when Mark started caring for his mother, who in 2014, was diagnosed with bowel cancer which subsequently became terminal.
As a son, carer and advocate, Mark was particularly struck by the complete absence of practical guidance to help him. He did not know from one day to the next what was going to happen, and more importantly, what lay ahead.
The book takes us on a very personal journey. Starting from initial diagnosis, to when Mark’s mother eventually succumbed to the disease. Finally, Mark’s own experience of grieving is honestly and openly described.
Throughout the book we see how Mark wrestled with his emotions, ranging from complete despair to experiencing moments of pure joy that will live with him forever. The book pulls no punches, nor does it sugar coat events. Parts of the book are deeply intense.
But even in the darkest moments, Mark found hope staring him in the face. It was hope that enabled him not only to keep on going each day, but to cherish life like never before.
Mark believes that dying with peace, grace and dignity is a human right for all. He prays that by sharing his own experience he help other carers.

“I hope this book serves as more than just a grief memoir, and instead encourages a wider debate about our society’s view of caring for our loved ones when they are nearing the end of their life.” – Mark Carrington
