This book is true-life tale of one woman’s multiple bereavements and of how she coped in the face of extreme grief – a book to comfort, encourage and inspire all those who have lost loved ones

Liz Coffey once had seven brothers and sisters, but today only she and one brother are left.  Thanks to ‘an insane series of cruel blows’ variously involving illness, accidents, mental health mismanagement and suicide, not one of her other siblings made it past their sixties.  And yet through it all, the love, life and laughter have shone through – sometimes, it has seemed, from beyond the grave.

This memoir is Elizabeth’s funny, shocking, tragic, heart-rending story. Despite the terrible events described in the book, readers will find a remarkable amount of humour (some of it for adults only) and even some riotous laugh-out-loud moments within its pages.  This is not a gloomy book. This is a book about the ups-and-downs of family life and the emotional rollercoaster of losing the people you love. Elizabeth’s frank account of her own painful path through the tragic loss of so many members of her family, will undoubtedly offer comfort and hope to many, many people.
