How do you, as an individual, and how do we, as a global community, deal with loss and grief when we feel powerless?

In Four Fridays: Lessons Learned by Letting Go, author Cynthia Barlow explores the nature of life, love, loss, and letting go, inspired by the passing of a dear friend taken by cancer.

Four Fridays is full of gripping moments, laugh-out-loud reflections, and sassy insights as Barlow chronicles her friend’s parting days and her own perceptions on finding purpose within pain.

Bold and insightful, tender and lighthearted, Four Fridays will take you through the small delights and big decisions, the painful boundaries and celebratory bowel movements, the great purge and the final goodbyes on the road to peace.

An uplifting story that honors the four Fridays Cynthia spent with her chosen big sister and all the precious moments in between, Four Fridays will leave you feeling more invigorated about life itself — and more grateful for it.
