pickAbi Morgan‘s partner Jacob collapses at home, is hospitalized with a mysterious, life threatening illness, and spends months in a coma. Upon waking, Jacob is an entirely different person, and worse, he is certain that Abi is an imposter posing as his wife. Morgan shares the challenges and emotional turmoil she feels after Jacob‘s collapse. She is forthright and candid, and while she tells a harrowing story, she is definitely not looking for pity.
pickI respect that Abi doesn‘t want pity because her story is heartbreaking. She lays it out straight, and the #audiobook narration is great.
Abi‘s husband is an actor with MS. A trial drug he took caused a life threatening reaction, and he was in a coma for several months. When he awoke, he believed she was an imposter. While he was in a rehabilitation unit, she was diagnosed with breast cancer. Hard stuff in a book without easy answers.
pickHeartbreaking and at times hard to read but also life affirming, read it
This memoir is heartbreaking. This describes my Saturdays, so lovely.
