SAIL AWAY MY FRIEND

About the Book

On a beautiful September day Jude hurries to be with her best friend, Lexy, who is dying of cancer and has very little time left. That last week of her friend's life will be highly emotional, but also quite surprising. Jude is not prepared for the life review she will experience, as she writes letters to her friend's young children. It has been five years since her own tragic loss, and she has worked hard to put it behind her. She now dreads losing Lexy. Yet, the unexpected courage, acceptance, and peace that Lexy shows facing death will be her final gift to her friend.

Sail Away My Friend is a poignant story of two friends supporting each other through life and death. It's a "must read" for anyone who has ever lost someone they love.

My friend,
You helped me stand when
I thought I could not.
You helped me see when
I was blinded.
You made me laugh when
I would have cried.
You showed me life when
All I could see was death.
You gave me hope when
I could find none.
You made me proud to call you friend.
