Gentle Passage

Gentle Passage is the first of three books called Willow’s Bend Series. Life had thrown my beloved and I a major detour two months before his retirement. Instead of being carefree and enjoying retirement, cancer now took over our world. I say our world, but it was his journey of pain and courage. I had to become a backseat driver, and that I did! I was indeed a take-charge person. However, illness and death I was not in charge of. Follow me on my beloved’s journey of his terminal illness from feeling powerless to being prepared. Feel my frustration and fatigue change to acceptance and awareness followed by action! This all took place by using patience and prayer. Working this all together and keeping a sense of humor brought peace to our home, family and situation. It was my beloved’s journey and eventual demise, but I now realize it was a rite of passage for me, an initiation on my own personal journey of writing, an opening up to my creativity, bringing something positive out of a negative situation.
