I knew after a couple of chapters into Uncontrollable it would be an emotional read, and I was right. Whew...
Anytime I read a book that involves children, marriage and life altering decisions it always hits close to home. Casey's situation is different than what I've read before and man...my heart.
“Just stay brave for a few more days,” he said before he left.
That sentence had me in tears. The pain she goes through to even have a chance at a normal life is astonishing. As a mother and hard working woman myself, I could relate to a lot of the same fears Casey has. I couldn't imagine going through what she does while trying to find the right balance with life, family and health.
I love that we get to see, not only her perspective, but her husband Jonah's as well. It gives a well rounded picture of the whole situation and made for a better read for me.
