Ann Goldingay had multiple sclerosis. And, over a period of forty-three years, that eventually left her not only wheelchair-bound but unable to swallow or speak. In this book, John Goldingay reflects on their married life together and on her remarkable life, and on what it has been like to grieve for her after her death in 2009. His account is moving, wise, challenging. It is a must-read for carers, nurses, counselors and couples.
