I so wish I would have read this book before my Mother died; I would have done so many things differently.

But this thread is not about that - it's about how you will be enriching the life of others and hopefully they will enrich yours as well!

I really hope you keep us updated because I am so excited to see how things go!
This is a wonderful book as are the other books she has written.

After I myself finished with my cancer treatment and my hair grew back, I did Volunteer work for Hospice. It is very emotional. I did this for a year and finally decided I needed a change. So now, I volunteer at the Cancer Center and help with people who have no one with them.
