I just finished reading another great book that sounds just as touching as "Life's That Way." The book is titled, <a href="http://www.cornfieldheiress.com/" rel="nofollow"> "Cornfield Heiress" </a> by Errollynne Peters. It is also a story about a remarkable woman who lived an extraordinary life and then went through a pretty tough battle with cancer. It really touched me and made me realize how precious life really is. Thanks for sharing this book. I am going to have to read it! Sounds like a great book!

I knew who Jim was and I had seen his work. I was a fan of his. As I read this book I found tears rolling down my cheeks as I read each of these emails again. I was sadden by the news of Maddie and that of Cecily. Then the loss of Cecily. I remember when I got that email. I cried and cried.....just as I did in reading it. But the love....WOW!! It's a love that one dreams about. As I finished the book I realized I had tears but smile. I was happy to know love like that still existed. Now I am a fan of Jim as a Father, a husband and an amazing writer....(of course as an actor.) Thank you for letting us be a part of your life. It is an honor.

It looks amazing. I've heard that journalling is one of the most therapeutic ways of dealing with grief, and the nightly emails strike me as being nearly the same - a way of sharing information but also of giving voice to the fears and emotions that the author must have been going through. I know this will be a hard but worthwhile read, and I plan on having lots of Kleenex at the ready. My library has this on order and I cannot wait to get a copy of it. It looks amazing.

I'll be reading this as soon as I can get my hands on it.
