Recommended Reading: "Living at the End of the Rope" Ron Hughes

     I enjoy good books.  This was a noteworthy read. In "Living at the End of the Rope: Going on when things aren't getting better" Canadian author Ron Hughes has interviewed ten people or couples who have endured some type of deep trial; shares their struggle, and how they are able to live on. 

     The real life testimonies include such hardships as; living with consequences of choices made, death of a child, deteriorating health, divorce, loving a severely disabled child, spouses' anxiety, death of a spouse, having a mismatched marriage, and adjusting to the realities of old age. He ties up the moving biographical chapters with his own conclusions of how these people are able to cope, and even thrive through and after their challenging experiences in his own words in the concluding "The Common Thread" Chapter.  

     I highly recommend this book to you, and don't want to give away it's contents any further.... Go, read it, with a great cup of tea, and drink in the truths demonstrated through lives of genuine Canadian sufferers. You won't regret it.
