Louise Blyth: Life After Death

Louise Blyth is a mother of two young boys and an author who has just realised her memoir ‘Hope is Coming’

It tells of her husband's journey from his bowel cancer diagnosis to his passing away. When he was diagnosed their boys were just 2 years and 8 months old. He went through 8 rounds of chemotherapy but sadly passed away within a year of diagnosis.

What runs in parallel to the story of George’s illness is the story of Louise finding her spirituality, taking her on a path from trauma to peace.

She writes through prose, letters and prayers to her husband and to God. Her book gives its readers an insight into the vulnerability of terminal illness. It tells of hope in a dark place and gives an enlightened perspective around grief, loss and the difficult conversations these bring.

In this episode she focuses on the diagnosis moment, finding her faith and the pivotal points after his death and it’s subsequent parallels with the global grief we feel in Coronavirus.

Hope Is Coming is available on Amazon:
