You are a free, immensely powerful source of life and goodness. Affirm it. Spread it. Radiate it.

Sixty-five Roses: A Sister's Memoir

Heather Summerhayes Cariou's sister Pam was diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis at the age of four and given only a short time to live. "Sixtyfive Roses" is the way Pam pronounced the disease that altered the lives of her siblings and parents, who in turn helped alter the community's response to the disease by founding the Canadian Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. Heather's book "Sixty-five Roses" offers a personal account of the pain, hope and valor of a family in crisis as it falls apart and pulls itself together again and again, only to emerge stronger and more loving.
