The most personal book by Charlotte Link. Bestselling author Charlotte Link compellingly recounts the illness and death of her sister Franziska. It is not only the most personal work of the writer, filled with insights into her own life, but also a touching portrayal of the constant fear of losing a beloved person that has been present for years. Charlotte Link describes the daily life in clinics in Germany, which cancer patients and their families face, the encounters with wonderful, dedicated doctors, but also with those whose behavior is chilling and frightening. She advocates for never giving up hope, as it is the only thing that provides the strength to fight. A subtle, moving plea for more humanity. A book that gives strength to not give up and to fight for life.
