"This little book is about journey. How do we keep walking and finding our way when the road ahead must pass through difficulty? This question feels relevant to where we are globally. As things we once depended on unravel, die or disappear, when we are hurting, how do we keep going?"Hanna du Plessis, August 2024

A vivid, heart-lifting and heart-breaking report from the teetering balance between devastation and joy. This curation of Hanna du Plessis’ writings from her life with a terminal diagnosis of ALS gives rare insight into the details of her experience with a progressive disease. She uses the blunt and often humorous details of her emotions to connect her experience with our own. We all experience endings, fadings, losses and deaths. Hanna helps us find grace in the mundane and wonder in the wreckage.

Hanna‘s story, as well as the entirety of her ALS writings, will soon be available in books of their own. Meanwhile we have the gift of this short powerful collection.
