Description
Reflections takes readers on an honest journey through dealing with fears, coming to term with illness, facing death, and acceptance.
Reflections is a gripping story written from two perspectives: Brian Hobbs, a songwriter with a terminal cancer diagnosis with months to live, and Fia Hobbs, his caregiving wife as well as his therapist.
They share with readers their journey through hope, despair, and finally to peace and acceptance. During Brian's illness, he wrote down his thoughts and feelings in a blog that became a huge inspiration for people to let go of their own fears and to find purpose in their own lives. Reflections is a continuation of Brian's blog and helps to inspire readers to make them realize what matters in life as they follow his last months.
