More about the book

Catherine's self-centeredness leads to marital collapse, isolation, bitterness and finally dependency on alcohol. An unexpected confrontation with impending death leads to an almost miraculous transformation of her attitudes toward life and those closest to her. Ironically, her interaction with her former husband's girlfriend becomes her most treasured relationship. Their exploration of the meaning behind finite and infinite, unity and diversity results in a mutual increased sense of reverence that transcends all selfish concerns. During her stay in the hospital, Catherine experiences moments of "Grace" that leave her and the reader changed forever. Join Catherine on her three-day journey filled with despair, fear, acceptance, love, and ultimately self- actualization. www.cross-to-bear.com
