Less than a year after being diagnosed with inoperable cancer, Fiona Mason's husband died at home. She was his carer. Unflinching in its detail, this book is a delicate chronicle of his last day and an account of thirty-six hours that changed her life. It's also an invitation to find better ways to talk about death and dying.
