Whilst this is a short book, I'm pretty sure that at any length I'd have wanted to read it in one sitting.
The fictionalised telling of Kinsella's experience of waking up in hospital having had brain surgery, and no recollection of the diagnosis that put her there.
Told through light-hearted vignettes that tug at the heartstrings, this was thought-provoking and should inspire everyone to truly live for the moment, but also consider how they - and their loved ones - would cope in a similar situation.
Her husband was a saint, and I can only imagine the pain he must have gone through having to tell her day after day about what had happened to her, and what they were facing as a family.
"Normal plus" should be my mantra going forward...
